Haring Realty presents their 6th annual āRichlandopolyā giant board game fundraiser on March 1st, 2024 in the King Ballroom at Kingwood Center Gardens in Mansfield.
Haring Realty, in cooperation with United Way of Richland Countyās upcoming campaign , is once again presenting their live-action, life-size board game event, āRichlandopolyā. The event had its inaugural year in 2018, providing an exciting and interactive way for employees of Richland County businesses to come together for a cause that will directly impact our community.
Money is raised when local businesses sponsor a property on the āboardā or when they gather a team to physically play the game. Teams create their own oversize game pieces to move around the 20āx20ā board, roll 2ā dice, exchange giant money and may even end up in a life-size ājailā.
Eight teams from area businesses have paid to play the 2023 game, many of whom played the previous year, and had such an enjoyable time that they jumped at the chance to play again this year. David Yoder with Richland Source, a collaborator on the first annual event says, āfrom its inception, this event was designed to bring people together and celebrate what we share in Richland County. I think in the first year we successfully created an atmosphere that was fun and lively.ā
This year, Haring Realty, together with more than 40 local businesses, is planning to increase the amount raised beyond the $11,610 that was presented to the United Way at the beginning of last yearās event. 100% of all proceeds will be given toĀ United Way of Richland County.
The event will be held at the King Ballroom at the Kingwood Center Gardens. Game play will begin at 11am and concludes at 1pm (or so) with the team with the most money/properties being awarded the āRichlandopoly 2024 Winnerā trophy.
This yearās event also features Mr. Bills Mobile Wood Fired Pizza Kitchen food truck in the parking lot beside the Garden Gateway building. 10% of their proceeds benefitting United Way as well.
