Do you want to double the attendance at your next family reunion? Of course you do! It’s fun to connect with seldom-seen family members, meet new ones, and celebrate your heritage with people who share a common ancestry. However, it can often be a challenge to get family members to commit to attending. They may respond with an “I’ll think about it” or “I don’t plan that far ahead,” so do something unique and intriguing this year to help convert the lookers into actual attendees.

Today’s family reunion attendees want more activities during their reunions, not just the standard potluck and talent show. It goes without saying that if you want to attract more people to the reunion, your first step is to offer something that this “active” crowd approves of, and wants to participate in.

If you are looking for a family bonding activity that the whole family will enjoy, consider booking a room at Escape Games PDX. This is a fun activity that will leave the whole family laughing and feeling closer together. It is also ideal for both small and large groups and participants of any age.

Invite cousins, aunts, uncles, wives, husbands, everyone who will add to the overall experience. Together they will have to find hidden objects, solve puzzles, and figure out clues to locate the key that will set them free. And it’s not as easy as it sounds; only 30% of players actually make it out before the hour is up. Here’s how it works.

Plus Escape Games PDX has 3 different room themes that will challenge even the most savvy of players. Some groups choose to play one room, and then come back the next day to challenge family members to another round to see if they can beat their original time. It makes for great family lore that will be passed down from generation to generation.

With a little creativity and advance planning, you can organize and plan a memorable family reunion that everyone will talk about for years!
