Quiz Night

The Katherine Jacobs Trust held a quiz night on the 7th March 2009 at Quorn Village Hall. Fifteen teams turned up on the night and took part in ten rounds of questions such as sport, science, film and music.

The winning team named themselves the Educators Plus One. The event was a great success, raising £537.43 for the trust. A big thank you to Jenny Winning, who read out all the questions and helped to organise the event, including the catering. We would also like to thank all those who came and supported the event.
