🌟 A Very New Beginnings Holiday Party 🎁 in Redwood City!
Details
We’re getting together again at Freewheel Brewing Company — one of our favorite spots for its easygoing vibe, good food, and plenty of space to celebrate. If you’re feeling playful, festive attire is totally welcome — ugly sweaters, sparkly holiday colors, elf or Santa hats, or anything that shows off your holiday spirit. This year’s party features two returning hits: our White Elephant Gift Exchange and a fun round of Christmas Trivia!

🎁 WHITE ELEPHANT GIFT EXCHANGE (Optional) 🐘
Last year’s White Elephant was such a crowd-pleaser that we’re bringing it back! Participation is totally optional — if you’d rather skip the exchange, you’re absolutely welcome to relax, watch the fun unfold, and cheer everyone on.
If you want to play:
• Gift Value: About $20
• Condition: The gift should be unused (re-gifts welcome!).
• Style Points: Unique, funny, clever, or delightfully odd gifts always get the biggest reactions!
• Wrap It: Please wrap your gift to keep the surprises coming.
How it works:
- Bring one wrapped gift for the shared pool.
- Draw numbers to determine the order of opening gifts.
- First person opens a gift.
- Each new player can either pick a wrapped gift or “steal” an opened one.
- If your gift gets stolen, you can select a new one or steal from someone else (within the limits).
- Each gift can be stolen up to 3 times — after that, it’s frozen with its new owner.
- Play continues until all gifts are opened and claimed.
🎅 BONUS FUN: CHRISTMAS TRIVIA
We’ll also play a quick and lively round of Christmas Trivia — everything from classic carols to quirky traditions. Expect simple prizes, bragging rights, and plenty of laughs!
✨ Come ready to enjoy good company, share some holiday cheer, and maybe head home with something unexpected. Whether you join the gift exchange or just enjoy the show, you’re part of the fun!
