Monopoly Tournament

On Monday SLAG hosted the much awaited Monopoly Tournament in conjunction with the Smithsonian Between Fences Traveling Exhibit. With five tables of Monopoly being run simultaneously it was difficult for this observer to be bored! I stopped by a table to see players at poverty levels only to return a few minutes later to find them wealthy!
David Hansen was the Grand Winner and was awarded a $50 Chamber of Commerce gift certificate. There were 10 other 2nd and 3rd place prizes. Everyone who participated was a winner because they chose to spend their afternoon at the library.
Thanks to the SLAG members who helped with refreshments, registration and acted as bankers. Hasbro supplied the games for the tournament and for prizes. Look to this website for the official Tournament Guide.
