It's Time to Play the Windsor Feud!

The Chamber is recruiting teams to play in this year's Feud. Businesses and civic groups form teams of four, dress in costume, raise money before and during the event and compete against each other for one of four trophies.

Good sports from ten teams answer funny, challenging questions while wearing imaginative costumes. It's a great way to support your community and have a great time! Pledge money to the teams ahead of time at their place of business or online at WindsorCC.org, or call in during the show to help your favorite team win.
