Object of the Game:  Come up with the best outside speaker

Rules:

1. Each team has 5 minutes to review the outside speaker category list.
    
2. On "Go" each team has 10 minutes to brainstorm and come up with a list of real people you think would be willing to speak to MABE.
    
3. At the end of 10 minutes each team reads their list of potential speakers and the MABE member who suggested or knows the potential speaker, that MABE member then becomes a "Kahuna Contender".
    
4. The team with the best (based on popular vote) list of candidates win today's prize.
    
5. The MABE member who can schedule the 1st outside speaker win's a special prize (to be determined by consent of MABE and it's board).
    
6. Additional prizes may be awarded based on quality of speakers.  Multiple speakers by the same MABE member and so on.
    
7. We will have a running tally of "Kahuna Contenders" through the next 6 months.
