[NFBMI-Talk] Is Your Team Trying Out: Federation Family Feud

[rob.parso3389 at gmail.com]

Welcome Federationists, to Brain Games 2025. This is the only place where
accessible live game show competition meets Federation philosophy. This
year, we are so excited that Brain Games is arriving with a fresh coat of
paint. 

 

What is the 2025 Brain Game?

The 2025 Brain Game is Federation Family Feud. Like the classic team-based
game we all love, participants will create teams of five to compete in a
trivia showdown for bragging rights and prizes.  

 

When does it take place?

Federation Family Feud begins during Blind Equality Achievement Month and is
a bracket-style tournament. During October, registered teams will compete in
qualifying matches via Zoom. These matches will be elimination-style, with
the losing teams in the match being dropped from the championship round. The
matches will all count toward the team's record, which are important for the
overall tournament. At our 2025 state convention, the two championship teams
in the bracket will compete in a live game show that includes door prizes
for attendees present.

 

Are there prizes for Federation Family Feud?

There are prizes for both attendees and participants of Federation Family
Feud. During the championship match at state convention, there will be door
prizes for attendees that are in the room supporting participants that are
competing. The winning prize for the championship team in Federation Family
Feud includes a weekend in the Greater Detroit Area. This package comes
with:

*	Tickets to a Detroit Red wings game.
*	Dinner at a Detroit-Style Pizza restaurant.
*	Hotel stay for the night of the Red Wings game.
*	$200 cash.

 

How do I register for Brain Games 2025?

Signing up to compete in Federation Family Feud is easy. First, create your
team. It must have a total of five members, and all the members of the team
must be planning to attend the 2025 NFB of Michigan state convention. You do
not have to be a current member of the NFB to compete or register, but must
be attending the convention.  The admission fee to participate is $10 per
person, or $50 for a team registration. Please send your team's name and its
members to Atherjammoa at gmail.com along with your payment to confirm your
spot. The deadline to register for Federation Family Feud is September 15,
2025. We look forward to playing the Feud with you all.

 

With Love, Hope and Determination,
