Jennifer, we have hidden a special prize for you which is worth more than a dollar. The prize says Congratulations right on it. Your job is to describe the prize and tell us where it is located without removing your blindfold. You may ask any Yes or No questions which you like. The audience will answer them accurately. You may also move around the room and feel for it. Good luck and have fun!!!
