The Games
- Sandbag Hill from

- Dining Hall Looking Down
**The Garage Games 2011 Main Event will return on Feb 5th 2011**
From this vantage, you are looking down from the dining hall back patio, to the bottom of the hill. Competitors will start at the bottom, next to the lake, they will carry the sandbag into the clearing in the foreground, perform their cleans, then run back down. Picking your way through the trees and the other competitors. The dead-lift at the end will be more difficult than most expect, after you have completely wasted the mid-section and lower chain by carrying this beast of a bag!
Stay tuned to this page as events will be updated here:
