[NFB_of_Georgia] At-large Chapter Fundraiser Event

[Derrean Tucker]

The national Federation of the blind's ATLARGE Chapter is hosting a
fundraiser event. We invite you to join us in a game of COMPOUND! .

COMPOUND is a game that consists of a compound word. The players have 3
minutes to make as many new words as they can using the letters within the
compound word. Words that the players make, using the letters within the
word given, cannot be anyone's name, a company or organization's name, or a
slang term. For instance if players are given the word stock market, they
cannot gain credit/ points for names like Sam, Kate, or T - Market because
they are people's names or either a company's name and not standard
definition based English words. The last and final rule, players cannot use
letters that are not given in the compound word nor can they use a letter
more than the times that they are given. For an example the word debit card
has only one B, therefore, a person will not gain credit/ points  for
spelling the word rabbit.

it's rules to the player, the players responsibilities, and give additional
instructions on how players/ teams should submit their words. Our compound
words will come from a non - participant. At the end of the session we will

points of the participants. Once we receive your contact info, we will send
you a zoom link with the date of the event. Make sure that on the zoom link
you do not call in over internet but dial in by phone with your team
members in a conference call on your mobile device. The goal is to get as
many words down as possible within 3 minutes. The player/ team with the
