Caymanopoly back for 20th Anniversary

The popular Caymanopoly board game from Junior Achievement is coming back to mark the organisation’s 20years of service in the Cayman Islands.

First produced almost 20 years ago, the game proved to be a successful fundraising effort for the youth organisation as well as a local sensation and popular souvenir for visitors.  A second edition was produced in 2006 and quickly sold out.

Junior Achievement raises funds through the sale of spaces on the Caymanopoly board to local businesses, as well as the sale of the board game itself.  However, the majority of the funds raised come from the sale of the advertising slots, which begin at CI$500.00

The 20th anniversary edition of Caymanopoly will be produced and ready for sale next year, but Junior Achievement is currently selling the board spaces so participating businesses can have exposure in this very special re-issue of the popular game.

“Caymanopoly has been a tremendous fundraiser for us over the years” said Pat Randall, Vice President of Junior Achievement and founding member of the organisation.   “Besides being a fun gift to give friends and family, the advertising spaces give local businesses great exposure while also supporting a very worthy cause.”

Junior Achievement empowers Cayman’s youth with tools to succeed through education in the classroom and after school.  Students learn how businesses are run first hand, ethical decision making, how to budget for their futures and the importance of staying in school and getting a college degree.

To find out more about being represented on the Caymanopoly board with your own advertising space, contact Junior Achievement at [email protected] for more details.  There are some prime board spaces still available.
