Virtual Activities and Programming

Looking for something to do from the comfort of your home? We've got a few ideas to keep you entertained. 

Weekly Jackbox Games

These games are for everyone – those who love trivia, those who love coming up with funny one-liners, those who want to hang out with friends (socially distant of course), and those who want to be solo for the day. Everyone is invited to play Jackbox Games with others from BCTC!

You’ll need 2 devices, #1 to use as the games main page (think desktop, laptop or tablet), and #2 to interact with the game (think phone or tablet)

You can log in at any time while we’re playing to join in on the fun.
