Trivia Night - 2020 Style

 

Hosting and participating in a Virtual Trivia Night was a new experience for an enthusiastic group of people. Hosting a successful event like this requires a team effort by everyone involved in various phases of organizing from start to finish. We are particularly indebted to our quizmasters and tech team; to the sponsors; and of course the actual success is because of everyone from far and near who played.

 

Participating in this virtual event was very different from the annual in-person event that we had hosted for the past 22 years. Gone were the teams and tables of eight; gone was the silent auction as a holiday shopping event; and gone was the rush to get a good seat. Instead, teams of one to four players snuggled down in front of their computes with Zoom and Kahoot as new best friends. Reports suggest that a good time was had by players regardless of the reason they played…. some were curious, some were diehard trivia enthusiasts, some were just bored with the Covid-19 restrictions, ……..all are friends of Rotary (some more recent than others) and we truly appreciate everone’s participation!
