"Medeba Lanes"

(May not be exactly as shown)

Medeba is going to have four "Carpet Ball" tables in an area called "Medeba Lanes" It is a great game that can be played by both kids and adults. Its a simple game played with pool balls. Each side gets five pool balls to arrange any way you want at your end of the table. At both ends is a pit area where the balls fall into when knocked by the cue ball. You simply take turns throwing/rolling the cue ball at your opponent's balls knocking them into the pit. Once all of their balls have been knocked into their pit area, you win.

3rd Trampoline
	We are adding a third Trampoline to our tampoline area and will have a "triad" of tramps!

"The Embers" Campfire Area
	We are adding another place for you to hang out with friends. The "Embers" will be an intimate campfire area for up to 20 people who can all gather around the fire and share the warmth, great stories and friendship.
