The event went AMAZING! We had over 100 students at this event and it was a rainy Thursday in the basement of a building that does not get much traction from students! Multiple students did both rooms. The energy level was high, [operators] Calvin and Emma were amazing, the intro videos really set the tone for the event, and I heard nothing but amazing feedback from students.
 
I know we will be doing this again in the future with you all! Thank you thank you again for all of the help that you provided to make this event a success! .

It went really well. [Operator] Jimmy arrived on time, set up on time, and worked with our Student Activities Committee students well. Our students coming out of the room clearly had a good time and the winning time was none other than our nationally high-ranking NCAA II volleyball team and their head coach. 
 
It was a good day.  Thanks for the follow-up and helping us secure the date.

I just wanted to make sure that I let you know that my team and our students are really appreciative of you and your company.  I’ve already received positive feedback from a few of our students, and a request to have the Escape Room experience in person.  On behalf of my team and the student body we would like to say Thank You! We will be following up with you soon.  Thank you again for all of your efforts, and we look forward to another amazing Escape Room experience in the future.

[Operators] Nicole, KT, and Billy were amazing. The escape rooms were fun, challenging, and incredible. Thank you so much for a great night. All the students were raving when coming out of the rooms... Even upon losing. Thank you for helping us make this happen. Out of a possible 252 spaces for students throughout the evening, we probably had 235+ go through! This was fantastic and we will definitely be booking again.

We had a great experience with Campus Escapes. [Operator] Christine arrived on time and was pretty self-sufficient while getting set up. The room looked great
and was challenging. Groups enjoyed it even if they didn’t make it out in time. Christine was fun and personable during the clean up process, which is very
detailed--my students in particular got a kick out of the supply lists by bag,
by suitcase, etc. and helped find the correct items to ease the load out process.

I just wanted to follow up regarding the On Campus Escape event from last Friday. The event was a complete success and the students all really enjoyed the two rooms! The two operators, Billy and Khadija, were great and so helpful with ensuring that everything ran smoothly throughout the entirety of the event. Thank you both again for everything and we look forward to working with Kirkland Productions again in the future!

It was great! I can't say enough good things about [room operators] Nate and Jamaali. They were incredible, professional, and fun. They well-informed us of our tasks and were flexible as issues arose through the evening (late reservations, no shows, etc.). All in all, students loved this event. While we are far from our next series of programs in Fall, I certainly would love to partner with you all again for even more rooms. And if Nate and Jamaali are available and willing for repeat performances, it would be awesome to work with them again. I hope they are duly praised and rewarded for outstanding customer service to both my team and the players. Thank you for a great experience!

The Campus Escapes event went very well! Set-up and take-down was quick and efficient. [Operator] Jimmy did an amazing job at engaging with the students, telling jokes, and providing a super fun atmosphere. I personally enjoyed helping reset the escape room in-between groups. The puzzles are very creative and well thought-out. Overall, the event was super fun, and Student Activities thanks Kirkland Productions again for partnering with us to put on such a unique, fun event for Carroll students.

Everything went great. The students and staff who went through it really liked it. Several people asked if we could do it again and one staff member said it was the most fun that they have had on campus. I would definitely bring it back should it be in the area again or maybe during one of our late night activities.

The event went fabulously, we got nothing but positive feedback. The event drew a more diverse crowd in terms of age and campus involvement and they all left asking for us to bring you guys back. Our club really liked working with Brian and I personally thought he was a great contribution to the overall experience in the room. The clues allowed groups to both split up and work together. We got to experience and sometimes hear groups "collaborating" together with high energy. Thank you very much for making such a wonderful experience.

Campus Escapes was a hit! We probably turned away enough students for 2 – 3 more rounds before word spread the slots were filled. I think we’ll definitely be interested in having it back sometime this academic year to try the other room. Brian was great to work with, too.

Multiple people came up to us and thanked us for having you guys because it was so enjoyable. Working with both of the operators was so easy!

Escape rooms give me an extreme dose of anxiety so I have never been a fan. However, with Campus Escape you never get that trapped, claustrophobic feeling. It's on your home turf. You get that genuine escape room experience without the hassle and the students don't have to plan their entire day around it. We've had Campus Escapes on at Carthage several times now and it's always a hit. We won't hesitate to bring them back in the near future.

Thank you for following up about Campus Escapes. The event went amazing last night! We had just over 120 students participate, and everyone left laughing and smiling. The event operators were also wonderful to work and communicate with. 
 
I know you all had mentioned the SignUpGenius was a newer addition, so I wanted to make sure to note it worked perfectly! Our students that participated almost exclusively signed up using the websites. Thank you for coordinating that!

​It was great to work with you all again on a successful event!
