There are some events where we call the table where someone first sits down their “Home Team” with the understanding that although that’s where they started and where they will eventually finish the evening, they will be sitting with others during the evening.
We might use our Commonalities activity to build a team spirit particularly if there’s going to be some friendly table-to-table competition involved.
By way of example this allows them to show each other at their “Home Team” a magic trick pertaining to the theme of the evening and then after a specific amount of time possibly number off and move to another table to see what others have brought – returning to their “Home Team Table” to report on what else they saw in their time away from their starting group.
Here’s one monthly event we had in which this worked particularly well. Click on the poster below to be taken to a more complete explanation of the evening.
