It was again rewarding to have 300 enthusiastic players for Trivia Night, conducted by the Robson Ranch Trivia Club. The excitement at the tables when the correct answer is given and the fellowship enjoyed at each table while competing to get the right answers make for an enjoyable evening! The Trivia Club awarded nearly $2,000 in prizes to individuals and entire tables. Prizes included gift cards to the Wildhorse Grill and Visa gift cards.
The top three winning teams were as follows: Team Trivia Terrors took first place, with each member receiving a $50 gift card. Team Red Hot Chili Peppers earned second place, with each member receiving a $25 gift card. Team 76Ers was in third place, with each member receiving a $20 gift card.
Thanks to all the participants, a donation from the evening event was made to Giving Grace in Denton. Giving Grace is a 501(c)(3) organization that serves individuals and families with children in Denton County who are currently homeless or are at risk of becoming homeless. By offering a continuum of care, they empower individuals and families with the consistent support and community they need.
