Sunrise Rotary & Douglas College Quiz Night

On the evening of November 5, 2013 we held a quiz night in partnership with Douglas College. The evening was a great success with 20 teams of six taking part,  and included a silent auction, draw prizes, and a bar. There were ten rounds of questions, with categories such as current affairs, science, sport, and entertainment.  The quiz began at 7:30 and was over by 10 pm.

 

Certificates were given to the winning team and to the team with the most creative answer.  Congratulations to Jason’s team, the undisputed champion of all quiz nights held in Coquitlam! Mayor Richard Stewart did an excellent job as quizmaster and saved the day with his smart phone when one of the questions proved to be too British - an occupational hazard when you have me creating the questions.

Funds raised will be used for literacy projects in Uganda where Douglas College has numerous student practicum placements and Rotary Literacy projects. Thanks to for Port Moody and Port Coquitlam Rotary clubs for coming out in support of us and to the hard work of staff and students at Douglas College. I am confident that we can build on this success next year.
