At the end of your story, you’ll offer a toast that highlights the core lesson or awakening from your experience. Go deep with this one--we want to get to know one another better!
Dress Code: “Climate Chic”Have fun with this one! Choose any of the following:

Trail-to-Table: Classy outdoor vibes—hiking boots with a blazer? Fleece with flair? Go for it.
Monochrome Eco-Systems: Dress head-to-toe as one color inspired by a biome (forest
green, ocean blue, soil brown, glacier white).
Plant Power: Patterns with leaves, trees, flowers, or fungi.

Any other creative idea that comes to mind.

2. Close your story by raising a glass to its key theme.
And… the very last storyteller must sing the first two lines of their story. (We believe in

My dumb dinosaur Christmas sweater fit the theme with this explanation: "I'm going with Extinction Chic- a reminder of what happens when the climate changes faster than species can adapt. Nothing says "protect the climate" like honoring the original cautionary tale- the dinosaurs." Everyone else pretty much had on clothes that were thrifted and mostly in earth tones... but the T-rex was hilarious.
