***GRAND CHAMPIONSHIP***

A thrilling game show where randomly selected members of the audience, participate in wild and crazy games. The final winner enters the Kidbuck$ chamber and grabs as many “Kidbucks” as possible, as they swirl about the chamber.  If you would like to be a contestant on the show, you must arrive 5 – 10 minutes prior to show time and be between the ages of 3 – 15 years old to be eligible!

HOW THE GAME IS PLAYED 

Nine contestants  are chosen from the audience by a raffle system. The contestants are divided into three groups based on their size and physical ability. Each group of three contestants play wild and crazy games to determine a winner.  

When all three semi finalists have been determined, the final round is played.  In this round the semifinalists “spin to win” on the winners wheel.  The one who spins the highest number is the grand champion and enters the money chamber where they have 30 seconds to grab as many Kidbuck$ as they can. The Kidbuck$ are redeemed for prizes.

Get your face painted by a 10 Foot man, enjoy elaborate and fun balloons and that  range from small animals to wild and crazy hats, juggling, magic and much more!
