Quiz Night, 2008

The recent Quiz night was enjoyed by all who attended. We are indeed grateful to our many sponsors and we are glad that some club members have a good circle of friends who support these functions. Despite plenty of advertising and advance notice as well as lots of terrific prizes, plus a low door fee of $5, we only had 5 club members in the crowd! So I do have to ask once again why do so few club members support our own functions?

As it turned out, there was a great selection of prizes and a good night was had by all with just a couple of controversial calls made. Competition from the top 3 teams was especially tight so it was just as well each of these teams went away with a goodie basket. Indeed all teams ended up with prizes by the end of the night.

This was my first function as social secretary and I would like to thank my “Quiz Team” – Jesse the Quiz Master, as well as scorers and runners - Vince, David and Paul.

I have listed our generous sponsors below and ask that you keep them in mind when you are purchasing the products they sell. Prizes would have been valued in excess of $500 and we were happy to break even on the night as this was purely a social function and not a fund raiser.

So where to from here? Let me know what you think members would be interested in. It is important that we have events that members will support. Call me on 8388 5281 if you have any ideas for future events. Thanks Gloria
