  Friendsgiving Gift Exchange

  Want to join the fun? Bring a wrapped gift with a minimum value of $15.

  Here's how it works: The person drawing #1 selects and opens the first gift. Each subsequent participant can either choose a new wrapped gift or steal an already opened gift. Once all gifts have been opened, #1 gets the final opportunity to swap!

  Who will bring home the most sought-after gift this year?

  We look forward to seeing everyone for a fun evening of food, fellowship, and sailing camaraderie!
