White Elephant Event

ContactWorks is holding a digital White Elephant event and everyone can participate! Everyone can submit a gift to the White Elephant game, and everyone who submits a gift will receive a gift, even if you aren’t able to attend the actual White Elephant event.

To start with, you will click on the link below to register yourself and to add your address and a gift to add to the white elephant event.

Shereka and Ken will coordinate with everyone on when we will be holding the actually White Elephant.

On the day of the event, everyone who is able to, will join the video call and the game lead, Santa Ken, will share their screen. We encourage you to login to White Elephant Online to check-in and follow along.

Once the game is complete, players will be notified what address to use to either ship the gift, or an e-card, based on the recipient’s preference.

White Elephant Rules

– When the game begins, everyone is assigned a number. Participants can see the number they drew by logging in
– Participants either open a gift or steal a gift from another person, in the order of their numbers.
– After everyone takes their turn, player #1 gets a bonus turn. They can either keep their gift or swap with another player
– The game ends after all turns are completed and every player has a gift

Additional Rules

– If a gift is stolen, it cannot be stolen ‘back’ immediately by the victim
– Gifts will get ‘locked’ (and no longer able to be stolen) after they’ve been stolen 3 times
– A given participant can only be stolen from 3 times throughout the game
– The number of steals per round is limited to 3
