Red Cow Quiz Nights

 

Sunday Night Quizzes are Back!

 

Where on earth did Summer go?  It seems incredible that it is time for the start of the Sunday Night Quiz Season again, back by popular demand!

The Quiz Nights are held at the Red Cow every Sunday at 8pm.  They are open to anyone and you can come along in teams of up to 5 members.  You answer as a team (so no one is put “on the spot”).  Come with friends or family, it only costs £ 2.50 per person.  Prizes are usually awarded per round to the winning teams (£3-1st and £1-2nd), there is also a Quizmasters prize (usually a bottle of wine) awarded at the end of the quiz.

Last year was very successful, with fun and enjoyable evenings spent in a lovely venue and the company isn’t too bad either!!  The quiz nights help raise funds for the upkeep of the Parish Hall and may have raised a few IQ’s not to mention a few eyebrows!

The quiz nights are a lovely way to finish off the weekend, with a social and friendly get together over a glass or two.  This year, we have a variety of Quiz Masters, so there is bound to be something for everyone’s taste and we have reminded all of the quizmasters that the essence of the evening is enjoyment for all, with a little exercise for those little grey cells!

The very popular Sunday Night Quizzes make a welcome return to the Red Cow on October the 4th.  So this year, why not come and join us from the start!  The Quiz Nights run throughout the Winter months on every Sunday.  Details of the quizmaster for each night are shown in the Village Diary section of the BKN.                                                                                                  Bob Filmer
