Trivia Night 2018 Was Fun For All!
For the 7th year of Trivia Night, we changed up a lot, but made sure the fun was amped up as well! A new location at St. Joseph School created a different atmosphere. Sporcle Trivia Master and Jeopardy Champion Seth Wilson led the 19 teams through new types of trivia rounds requiring point wagering and strategy. We even added a Super Bowl Squares game to our raffle and Heads or Tails game for added fun and fundraising. The evening ended with a time for dancing and socializing so teams could mingle.
Congrats to Team Livin’ On A Square for their victory over the pack in the last trivia round!
Soymates won Best In Show with fabulous costumes and table decor!
