Trivia Night Returns!
Thursday, February 24th
7:00pm Online
Join us on February 24th from 7:00-8:30pm for a night of trivia, community, and friendly competition!
Assemble a team of up to 6 people, or register as an individual. Go it alone or ask to join a team. Have fun thinking up a clever team name and appoint a team captain who will receive further instructions. Please sign up in advance to reserve your spot! Registration closes at 6:30pm on Thursday Feb 24. Suggested donation is $10.00 per person. You and your teammates can also become members of the Friends, update memberships or make direct donations.
There will be four rounds of 10 questions each, all on Zoom, with private breakout rooms for teams to discuss their answers. The prize for the top team is bragging rights for one year – plus your achievement will be posted on the library’s digital announcement board for all to view and admire.
Proceeds from this event are dedicated to enhancements for the Children’s Garden at the Library. Last year‘s event was a great success involving lots of fun, laughter and raised over $1,300.00! Can we top that?? ?
We hope you will join us on February 24th in support of our wonderful local library!four
