L/F Suggestions....Family Reunion Entertainment
We are hosting a Family Reunion this Summer and I'm looking for some suggestions for an evening of two of entertainment. The Reunion it's self is a week long and it's going to be at Kamp Kiwanis out by Bragg Creek. We have Family comming from all over the US and some from Ontario. Some things that have worked in the past, Casion Night, Talent Show, Family Feud, Murder Mystery, HNIC etc...
We have all sorts of stuff planned for the day time, Baseball, trip to Banff, Cornhole, Horse shoes and the like. Have any of you had fun with your extended family while being sober? Please tell me what you did.

There will be 80- 100 or so people there.
Cornhole is more commonly known around here as the "Bean Bag Toss", however, in Ohio and Pennsyl... they call it Cornhole because the bags have corn seed inside them not beans. Needless to say once we heard Cornhole we went with it, haven't looked back since. My wife really likes Cornhole, even more then I do.

If its anything like our family reunions the entertainment provides itself.
At least two brawls. A bunch of drunk stumbles, somebody gets shot in the face with a firework, and a young couple finds love only to realize that they're cousins.

A week long family reunion? Dear god, I couldn't be convinced to partake in one of those with my family.
How about 200 bottles of tequila for the entertainment?

FTFW! Can't go wrong with the original form of entertainment - alcohol!

A week?! Jesus . . .
And I thought driving down to Lethbridge in a few weeks for my family reunion at a Chinese restaurant was going to be painful.

I had a family reunion there last summer with roughly the same number of people.
I should start out by saying that there wasn't much in the way of "being sober" as my family likes to drink.......a lot.
There is paintball right nearby so that's one thing you could do.
Every reunion we do a "Great Race" which is just a big long obstacle course relay.
