Summer is just around the corner! Book with us today to bring fun games to your upcoming outdoor party.

Our newest game is Washers! Similar to horseshoes, players take turns pitching steel washers to score points. This is a variation of three-hole washers games we’ve played before, but instead of just a flat playing surface we’ve added walls for shooting bank shots! And getting some lucky bounces as well 😬. #yardgames #partygames #outdoorgames #pdxevents #portlandevents #woodworking #diy #handmade #recdept #washers #pdxmakers

Cut it out! That’s a wrap on this Washers game build. Two of these sets are officially added to the inventory. Check em out! #recdept #diy #washers #yardgames #partygames #pdxevents #portlandevents #woodworking
