Survey Says! Futch Feud


In honor of HUD's Neighborhood Network Week 2008, we played Fucth Feud! Over 30 residents participated in our luncheon (pizza, garlic knots, salads & soda) then played Futch Feud.

After lunch, while I set up for Futch Feud, the residents played a little game using sticky hands and chocolate coins. Each resident was given a sticky hand and had to grab the chocolates off the middle of the table with their 'hand'. The pictures of this are hysterical. It was good to see all of you having so much fun.

Prior to playing Futch Feud, the residents were broken into 2 teams, Team "Google" and Team "Yahoo", each team chose 5 spokespeople who were elected to shout out the asnwers.

Surveys were displayed on the wall using an LCD Projector so our game board was HUGE! After playing to 300 points and 8 surveys, Team Google was the big winner. All residents who participated received a $1.00 scratch off ticket, while the winners each received 2 tickets. We also chose names at random and gave away even more tickets!

Futch Feud was a huge success and everyone who played had a good time. We will definetly do it again in the near future!

Thank you so MArie & Helen for all of your help. You ladies are wonderful!!!
