Clue Night (AKA the Best Night of My Life)

Have you ever had an idea...I mean a crazy one?
One that seemed like something that could never actually work out, but it was a nice thought.

Two summers ago, while I was counting cans of soup for YouthWorks, I thought that it might be fun to play a three-dimensional version of the board game "CLUE" in a residence hall. I thought that it might be fun to have the RAs dress up like the game characters and to allow residents to search the building for clues.

I pitched this idea to my staff last year...and together we planned it as a hall event. It was a huge success (and a lot of fun for all involved).

This year, we did it as an all campus event!
As and ARD, I was in charge of advertising...
Creating posters for this one was awesome!


I also got carried away and made images like this one for the RAs to use as profile pictures...





And a video for Chapel...

Then, after tons of planning, thinking and talking...
the event happened.

Here are some things you should know...

We had 160 people in our building that night (that is a phenominal turnout for a weekend event on this campus)


Things flowed beautifully.

Everyone who came had fun.

Teams of students built relationships with one another while they looked for criminals.


Our staff was so proud!
