ALT OGDEN: Graveyard Picnic & Potluck 🪦🧺
Details
**UPDATE** The Event will no longer be held at the Cemetery due to cemetery policy! The new info is listed below!
RSVP NOTE: If Meetup says spots are full, come anyway! Message me directly for the location or join our discord.
Join us for a chill, atmospheric Sunday evening gathering with ALT OGDEN. Whether you’re goth, punk, alternative, an artist, or just someone who enjoys quiet spaces, strange subcultures, and autumn vibes, come pull up a blanket, share some food, and hang out with good people.
We'll be setting up our own fake headstones, macabre decor, and spooky ambiance under the park shade so we still get our full graveyard picnic energy with zero hassle!
### 📍 Venue & Location Information
To comply with local park permit rules regarding public event advertising, the exact park is kept private from public web feeds.
- How to get the location: Hit RSVP / Going on this event page, and the exact Google Maps coordinates for the park pavilion will be sent directly to your Meetup inbox!
- Already in our Discord? The exact pin is also posted in the `#events` channel.
### 🧺 How the Potluck Works
- Food & Drink: Bring a dish, finger foods, sweet treats, snacks, or a non-alcoholic beverage to share. Store-bought or homemade are both fine!
- Supplies: Plates and utensils will be provided. Bring your own mug or cup.
- Seating: Bring a blanket, picnic mat, or folding camp chair.
### 🎴 Featured Activity: "GHOSTED" Social Card Game
After we eat, we’ll be playing a custom social card game created specifically for ALT OGDEN meetups called GHOSTED!
- The Premise: You’re stuck giving advice to ghosts trying to resolve their petty afterlife drama. Spirits bring you their absurd lingering grudges, haunting problems, or unfinished business, and you have to give them the absolute worst (or best) advice on how to handle it.
- Sample Prompts:
- "I tried to possess a man for the first time. I got as far as his left arm before I panicked and left. Now he thinks he has a neurological disorder. How do I tell him it was me?"
- "I tried to scare a man in his bedroom. He looked at me and said, 'Dude, same.' What does that mean?"
- "I spent 50 years haunting a house. The new owners renovated the entire place with white walls and turned it into an 'AirBnB'. How should I handle them?"
### 📜 Park & Event Rules
We want to keep hosting events smoothly, so respecting the space and each other is expected:
- Leave No Trace: Pack out everything you pack in. We leave our spot cleaner than we found it.
- Strictly Non-Alcoholic: No alcohol per city park regulations and group policy.
