A White Elephant Party is basically a FUN gift exchange which may induce a little rivalry for gifts, and certainly challenges the giver in gift selection (because you could end up with the gift you bring). It is for fun. We would love to have as many participants as possible.
Please do not spend a significant amount of money on the gift you bring as this is for fun and you do not know who may end up with the gift.

The basic gist is this.....
You bring a gift of some sort (wrapped) and you put it with all the others. When time for the gift exchange has arrived, all participants draw numbers (or some other variation of deciding the order) and then the first person picks a gift. After the first person picks their gift AND opens it, it is the second person's turn. The second person may take the first persons gift (forcing the first person to reselect) or he may select a wrapped gift from the pile. This continues with all of the socializing that goes along with until all of the gifts have been received.
*** If you come as a couple to participate, please bring one fun gift per person
The more you drink, the more fun this is. :)
