It may have been a hot August day, but there were 300 cool, enthusiastic players for Trivia Night, conducted by the Robson Ranch Trivia Club. It’s always exciting to witness the fun-loving fellowship in the ballroom, including the excitement at the tables when the correct answer is given! We awarded nearly $2,000 in prizes to individuals and entire tables. Prizes included gift cards to the Wildhorse Grill and Visa gift cards.
The winning top three teams were as follows: The team The Right Stuff took first place, winning a $50 gift card for each member. Team Quizzaros earned second place, with each member winning a $25 gift card. The team Risky Quizness was in third place, receiving $20 gift cards.
Thanks to all the participants, a donation from the evening event was made to Cumberland Youth & Family Services in Denton.
