🎉 New This Year: Banquet Gaming Tournaments

 

This year, we are adding something new to the banquet. And by new, we mean slightly more competitive than cornhole and dramatically more intense than checkers. Don't worry. The classics are still here. You will still find chess, cards, cornhole, and other traditional table games available throughout the evening. The photo booth will still be ready for your most glamorous moments. The DJ will still be spinning a great mix of music.


But now, we are introducing tournament play. Three organized competitions will run at the same time, offering students the chance to test their skill, focus, and perhaps their ability to keep cool under pressure.


Since all three tournaments are happening at the same time, students will need to choose where to put their skills to the test. Participation is limited and will be filled on a first-come, first-served basis. Wait too long and your biggest role may be enthusiastic spectator.


There is a small entry fee to compete, and it goes toward the prizes awarded to each tournament champion. Think of it as a modest contribution to someone’s future victory speech.


So stretch those thumbs, get the wrists ready, and bring your game face. Championship glory and serious bragging rights are on the line.
