Week Of The Family 2020 | San Carlos

San Carlos will celebrate its 21st annual Week of the Family which sees hundreds of families come together for fun, free activities in the San Carlos neighborhood from January 17 – 25, 2020.

The goals of the San Carlos Week of the Family are to:

  • Strengthen family relationships
  • Provide families in our community the tools that help families
  • Promote family life
  • Honor and pay tribute to families
  • Encourage families serving families
  • Have lots of fun

The San Carlos Week of the Family is an annual event organized by community volunteers whose goal is to strengthen family relationships by providing a series of activities focusing on family and community interaction. Celebrating twenty year, the Week of the Family committee and its volunteers are proud to contribute to the quality of life and the family-orientated community of The City of Good Living.

Please join the hundreds of families that have enjoyed Week of the Family by participating in one or more of the mostly free activities offered. You’re sure to find something entertaining and fun for your entire family.

San Carlos families take many forms. Everyone in our community is encouraged to participate.

Week Of The Family 2020 | San Carlos

The annual San Carlos City-Wide Roshambo Contest (Rock, Paper, Scissors), with finals during Family Game Night. The event started in 2012. Both “at-large” finalists and school champions will participate in the finals. Prizes will be awarded. If you are interested in participating in the “at-large” division just come along to Family Game Night and sign-up. Everyone can play — Kindergarten and above.

Rules:

  • You and your opponent make a fist with one hand and tap it three times on the fist of the other hand (or another hard surface).
  • You and your opponent should both count the strokes out loud.
  • On the third tap you and your opponent should both make or “throw” your characterizations of either ROCK, PAPER, or SCISSORS very distinctly, at the exact same time, so there is absolutely no mistake what you threw.
  • Winner is awarded 1 point for the winning throw. (Rock dulls/beats scissors, paper covers/beats rock, scissors cuts/beats paper.)
  • If you and your opponent “throw” the same character, no points are awarded–try again.
  • A player must win two out of three throws to win a game and two games to win the match.
