Thornton Quiz Night

Another very successful fund raising night on behalf of the Community centre.

58 ‘quizzers’ in 10 teams came to the centre on Saturday to test their knowledge and logical capabilities.

There were the usual 100 questions, a mix of a picture round, general knowledge, connections, logic and riddles.

All teams scored in excess of 80 out of 100. But the team that came top for the second time in a row was the ‘Bluetits’ with a score of 92.

£51 in cash prizes were handed to the winners and runners up. There were 14 raffle prizes won. Leaving a total of £475, donated to the Community centre towards essential works on the heating system.

Thank you to everyone who took part and for your generosity in purchasing raffle tickets and donating prizes, and to those who helped set up and later dismantle the tables and chairs.

Quiz Night news – 6th September

The latest quiz night at Thornton Community Centre was well attended as usual, with 60 ‘quizzers’ turning out for a night of fun, sharing chatter, drinks and a buffet whilst puzzling over the new quiz format, which now includes not just general knowledge questions and a picture round, but also a mix of logic and cryptic clues. All projected on to the big screen at the centre.

100 questions were answered and £51 in prize money was handed out, together with 15 raffle prizes , 2 spot question prizes and a booby prize.

£450 was donated to the Community Centre towards the purchase of new chairs for the centre.

Hopefully the next quiz will be in January.
