The Southwell Pink Ladies held their annual quiz on 21st March at the Minster School, with 36 teams taking part, making it a fully packed hall!š©·
šThe total raised was Ā£3,182 ā a great achievement!š
āļøHere's what the group had to say about the event (and some special thanks)...
The group were very fortunate to have Martin Berry back as quizmaster. He had prepared a terrific variety of questions for us, comprising five rounds plus two marathons, one of which was based on an āOnly Connectā round ā āmissing vowelsā.
The bar did a brisk trade selling beer, wine and soft drinks. Thanks to Nick and Steve for organising and running it.
At the interval, Heads and Tails was played with the winner choosing a large bottle of Tia Maria as their prize and the runner-up a beautiful flower arrangement and voucher.
It was a tightly scoring quiz but at the end of the evening it was āTequila Mockingbirdā that won. Well done to them!
A popular feature of this event is the raffle. The stall was resplendent with the traditional bright pink buckets and a whole array of wonderful prizes. Many people donated prizes but the vast majority were supplied by local businesses. We simply could not run such a great raffle without their generosity and it was a great success raising Ā£890!
Thank you to all who helped on the night ā the teams, the organisers, and all the local traders. Special thanks to Martin for his hard work and ongoing support of the Pink Ladies.āØ
