What is Albionopoly?
Albionopoly is downtown Albion's life-sized Monopoly-style game, originally played on the sidewalks around the Noble County Courthouse . Game play was downsized and moved to the beautiful, newer Annex Courtyard on the west side of the Courthouse in 2025. Squares are sponsored by local businesses who are invited to decorate them in chalk.
How is Albionopoly played?
Game play is very similar to the popular board game, with some simplifications. Each team will be given "money" to begin and game play will dicate how much they collect and pay along the way. Starting at "Go", teams move around the giant game board based on rolls of giant dice. Volunteers will be on hand to help emcee and direct game play. Three rounds of play will determine two semi-finalists, then a champion. Prizes are awarded for winning teams!
What comprises a team?
Based on experience, a team is well advised to include five people, but smaller and larger teams may play. Each team needs some adult supervision and guidance, but kids can join in the fun, too! Past participants have included couples, families, staff groups, business-sponsored teams, and more. Enthusiasts who are not actively playing on a team are also welcomed to come downtown to root on others, observe, and enjoy the game and other activities On the Square!
How much does it cost?
A team registration fee of $25 includes up to five team members. Additional team members may be added for $5 each. Observers are free! Game "board" squares are sponsored by local businesses. Sponsors are invited to decorate their squares (the STAR Team will help with initially outlining the squares) to add to the fun of game play using chalk (no water-based craft paints, chalk only!) For information about sponsorship, contact Mary Ann Troutner at (260) 564-0341.
