When you arrive on Thursday, you will be assigned to either group Fruit Ninja or Angry Birds (to go with our Going Global...Staying Connected theme). Group Fruit Ninja will bowl first. Group Angry Birds will play laser tag (15 at a time) and get their game cards to play games. We will eat, have PRIZE DRAWINGS and then the groups will change place....or at least that is the tentative plan. See you on Thursday!
