Ward Activities Chairman here I come....

I have recently been called as the Ward Activities Chairman...a little overwhelming...but I am up for the challenge. So I am asking all of you to share some of your favorite activities that your ward has done - Christmas Parties, fun random get togethers, Halloween, whatever you have done with your ward that you loved! We have lived in our ward for 5 years and I think other than the ward Christmas party every year, we have only had 1 other ward activity. Well all that is about to change...and I am looking for some really good ideas from all of you. With friends spread through out the country I know there are some great ideas out there!
