Description

We celebrate Festivus the traditional, old fashioned way with all the trimmings including the beautiful unadorned aluminum pole, a meatload dinner, and Feats of Strength. We finally have a fruitcake to display (but not eat).

Event Details

FEATS OF STRENGTH
It wouldn't be Festivus without Feats of Strength. We will have prizes for the greatest feats.

Holding the Big Mug o'Pennies was a hoot so we'll be doing that again. Arm wrestling will be back too.

We know that holding a big mug o'pennies isn't in everyone's wheelhouse, so you are welcome to demonstrate your own Feat of Strength. For the last two Festivuses, Andrew Jardel balanced a stool on his chin, which was really cool and only a little bit scary.


AIRING OF GRIEVANCES
The other big part of Festivus is the airing of grievances. Once again we will have an open mic for you to air your grievances as effectively as possible.


UGLY SWEATERS
Break out your ugliest sweater for Festivus. When else do you have a good excuse to wear it? We will have prizes for best ugly sweater, nicest ugly sweater, and best homemade ugly sweater.


LIVE MUSIC
Band to be announced.


FESTIVUS MIRACLES
Keep your eyes open for Festivus miracles. We spotted several last Festivus.


BEER
And it wouldn't be a Grey Lodge event without great beer. We will have a greatest hits of Christmas seasonals. The draft list will be updated as we get closer to Festivus.
