Spring Fling Event Details

Come join us for our first Spring Fling Event held in an indoor domed facility capable of facilitating several activities all at the same time including (bring them if you got them):

• Bean Bag Toss Games
• Bocce Ball
• Ring Toss
• Frisbee
• Golf Putting and Driving Range (driving needs to be arranged with other activities – don’t want anyone betting bonked)
• Volley Ball (We will supply volley ball stands that can be secured with sandbags)
• Soccer (the facility has soccer ball nets available – need balls)

• Card and Board Games (bring your own cards, games, and tables/chairs)
• Socializing
• Almost anything your heart desires

We hope this will be the beginning of many, enjoyable, monthly events at this facility.

WHAT TO BRING

Think of this as an outdoor event held indoors.  You won’t need insect repellent, but you should bring:

• Thongs, sandals, or flip-flops
• Lawn chairs or something to sit on
• Tables and chairs if you want to play card or board games (bring your card or board games, too).
• Large bath or beach towels to sit on when using public chairs or to use as wraps to go to public restrooms.
• Storage bins or gym bags to store your clothes in.
• Bocce ball, ring toss, bean bag toss, Frisbee, footballs, softballs, volley balls, beach balls, pickle ball, lacrosse, — any type of lawn game you may have that does not need to be pounded into the turf.

FOOD & BEVERAGES

• Pizza will be provided, but bring snacks to share.
• Bring your own beverages and coolers
• Some bottled water will be provided.

ALCOHOL

You may bring alcoholic beverages for your own personal use, but you may not share them with anyone else.  You are responsible for yourself, but if sponsors or management of the facility feel you are not able to drive, you may be asked to arrange alternate transportation and recover your vehicle the following day.

RESTROOMS

The restrooms are in the lobby area.  Bring bathrobes or shorts to wear in the lobby (it is closed to the public, but there are glass doors to the front – we may be able to cover them, but staff will be in this area, too).

TEMPERATURE

This is a large open area facility.  The furnace has two settings – on and off!  There is no thermostat.  It will be turned on prior to 7 p.m., but it may not be as warm as other indoor events, so plan accordingly.

CHANGE AREA

There is ample room in the inside area for change areas, but there are no lockers or storage bins supplied.  Suggest you bring your own storage or gym bags.  There is an area where these can be placed out of the way.

WAIVER TO BE SIGNED

You will be asked to sign a liabilty waiver providing your legal name and signature which will be held in complete confidence by the facility’s legal office.
