We’re proud to announce the new and improved Eventzee website! Since Eventzee’s creation nearly two years ago we’ve been so busy we haven’t had a chance to update the website at all. Our game and what our services offer has changed so much and now we finally have something to better explain how to take your event to the next level using Eventzee. Thank you to our wonderfully talented Front End Developer/Designer Judy Nguyen for the awesome work! Including in the new site are programs that are perfect for Eventzee, packages to fit your event needs, an updated event photo gallery, and much more!
See some great examples below and be sure to visit https://eventzeeapp.com/!
The new Eventzee home screen gives a basic run down of how our mobile scavenger hunt services work.
Individual program pages give you an idea of how Eventzee can be best used for you!
Our packages break down some of the options to consider before we can get you an estimate.
The new event galleries also make it easier to share and download photos, and and set up a slideshow!
Sep 21, 2016 | Announcements, Eventzee Exposure, TESTIMONIALS
In “Eventzee Exposure” we look at testimonials from happy clients who have hosted their own Scavenger Hunts. Our users’ experience is very important to us, so when things go off without a hitch we want to cheer about it. If you’d be interested in sharing your Eventzee experience please reach out to eventzee@munzee.com.
Host: Boy Scouts of America
Event: National Venturing Event – VenturingFest
Event Breakdown and Testimonial:
The Boy Scouts of America’s Venturing program used Eventzee at the Summit Bechtel Reserve in West Virginia for our first ever National Venturing Event-Venturing Fest.
We wanted a way for our participants to be able to explore the Summit and interact with other participants and Summit staff members. A scavenger hunt was a great way for our participants to get out and explore the site as they looked for clues. We thought an electronic scavenger hunt would better meet the needs of our population, since most of our participants have smartphones and they are easy to carry around and would not get lost like a piece of paper. Our event was 6 days and our scavenger hunt lasted 5 days so we could announce the winner on the last night during our closing show.
Our participants LOVED the Eventzee Scavenger Hunt. We even had adult leaders join the fun and participate, too. This was our most popular event, with over 300 participants actively playing along. Throughout the week, countless youth and adults commented to our Venturing Fest staff about how much they loved the scavenger hunt and how much fun they were having. They equally liked the ability to explore the Summit and get to meet new people along the way, since some of our clues required participants to meet other participants and Summit staff members.
The app benefited our event in so many ways. First, it encouraged our participants to get out and explore the Summit. Many of them had never been there before, so this was a great way for them to see the different program areas. Secondly, this event encouraged interaction between our participants because they were working on clues together. This also gave our participants something to do in the evening when our program areas were closed, but, most of our participants were working on their scavenger hunt during all waking hours of the event. The scavenger hunt added another level of fun and interaction to our event, which was loved by all of our participants!
