Cards Anyone?

Cards Anyone?

Truth be told, I have never been much of a gamer.

I was more of a book nerd. I do enjoy a good game of Uno or Crazy Eights though.

Over the years, I have been accumulating quite a collection of cards decks that I sometimes pull out when presenting workshops or facilitating community groups.

Here are a few of my old and new decks. You might want to check them out and try them with your community group!
