Board Game Bucket-A-Thon

Join us in NYC on Saturday, October 11, 2025, for the world premiere of Memory Bucket—SAADA’s new cooperative storytelling board game to play with the people you’re curious about.

We've poured our hearts into this game for over a year, working hand in hand with our community, and we’re so excited to finally share it with you!

Memory Bucket helps you uncover the stories you’ve always wished you knew. Based on the methodology of SAADA’s First Days Project, our new game allows you and your loved ones to travel back in time together to hear about the experiences that made them who they are today.

Invite your friends and family to hear their stories, and make new friends at the event.

Ticketed attendees will play a prototype of Memory Bucket at our Board Game Bucket-A-Thon and receive a Memory Bucket game for free (retail price $50) when we launch to the public later this year!

SAADA’s Board Game Bucket-A-Thon (and Memory Bucket) is for ages 8+.

You may register as an individual or as part of a group. Individuals will be placed with groups, and groups of fewer than six may be partnered with other groups or additional individuals. This is a great opportunity to build community and make new friends!

Light refreshments will be served.

Please note: Photos and video will be taken at this event and may be used for promotional purposes on social media and other platforms.
