Cornhole board games, Horse shoes, Volley Ball net or Basketball net, Non expensive poker table with cars and chips, board games, Playstation or Nintendo for the teens, even spend a little extra for a full size stand up arcade game.You would be surprised the extra stars and kind words a few family nights of fun can make memories and people wanting to come back!
