GAMES, CONTESTS, AND ACTIVITIES - Join us for a weekend of fun!

• Games:  We will be playing games at various times throughout the event. All participation is optional.

• Silent Auction: We will be hosting a Virtual Silent Auction.  In order to earn the maximum  amount of donations for the Cystic Fibrosis Foundation, we are working hard to figure out how to hold     a LIVE and VIRTUAL Silent Auction.  If you would like to donate something to the silent auction, please contact us at memphis.scrappingforacure@gmail.com. We need to receive all silent auction donations by the day of the Retreat.

• Contests: We will be having a few contests throughout the event. These will include: Table Décor Contest and a Costume Contest.  

  • Table Décor: Participants will have Thursday evening and Friday morning to decorate their table for our annual table décor contest. Friday afternoon we will judge the tables. Table décor needs to incorporate: Scrapping for a Cure, Cystic Fibrosis, and/or the "Gilligan Island" Theme.  You can enter as a group if you wish and decorate all of your tables.

  • Costume Contest will be Friday evening, with judging held shortly after dinner. Tentative time is 7 pm.  Costumes can be as simple or elaborate as you desire.

  • What is in the Box - Please consider participating in this!! Wrap up a much desired crafting item or an assortment of crafting items into a beautiful present and bring it in so that we can hold an auction to earn money for the Cystic Fibrosis Foundation. The box is bid on based on the wrapping and not on this gift since they cannot see it until it is opened.  The gift should be worth at least $15 and should be unused.  You CAN pull from your hoard (Oops!! Stash). This was SO much fun last year.  I hope you will participate.
