Description: Pass out applications to be "on
the island" of your Residence Hall. Select 2
people to represent each floor from those applications.
Every week, at Hall Government, the residents in
attendance are able to vote one person off the island
via secret ballot. Also, each week there is an
immunity challenge with everything from a Twinkie eating
contest to whoever brings the most items for a community
canned food drive. Whoever wins immunity gets a
small prize (soda, candy, etc.) and as people are voted
off they receive a prize which gets progressively better
every week. The grand prize for the individual in
our hall was a DVD player. In addition, the floor
that the winner represented received a sub party.
Instructions/Things Needed: Just a great hall and
some planners to come up with some original immunity
challenges.
Other Considerations: Floors team up in
alliances. In our hall, the three girls floors
became powers to deal with since they all voted
together. The co-ed floors tried their best to
bring down large numbers of people to Hall Government.
Things to keep in mind: it's all about the hype!!
Advertising is key! Hang up pictures of the
survivors in front of the main desk and keep the
residents informed on who gets voted off.
