YES Hosts Youth Annual White Elephant Party Saturday December 15th, 2018

Have you ever received a gift you neither wanted, nor had any use for? Well, here’s your opportunity to unload that cringe-worthy dust collector in a fun and humorous way. During the evening of Saturday, December 15th students from LightHouse’s YES Program will host blind and low vision youth for our annual White Elephant Party. The Festivities will begin at 5:00 pm and will include a meal prepared by YES students, evening entertainment and our always lively annual White Elephant Party. We ask each student that wishes to participate in the gift exchange to bring one wrapped gift valued at no more than $10. Gifts must be wrapped, tasteful and non-offensive. However, the more outrageous and/or funny the gift, the more fun we will have.

For those unfamiliar, a White Elephant party is a fun holiday gift giving party where participants bring humorous and inexpensive gifts to exchange. White elephant gifts are usually tacky, gaudy, inexpensive and of course, silly. The funnier and more absurd, the better! The best part of the game is "stealing" gifts from other participants. If you would like more information, or to RSVP for this event, please contact Jamey Gump, Youth Services Coordinator, at (415) 694-7372 or by email at jgump@lighthouse-sf.org. Please RSVP by Wednesday, December 12th.
