What a very good night! Our fundraising quiz on February 18th was a great success, with more than sixty quizzers. Huge thanks to organisers Tess and Chris!
The winners were Jane and Roger Lock with team mates Sarah Boothroyd and Mark Johnson. They will receive half-price tickets to see The Harbottle & Jonas Trio at Osmington Village Hall on 23rd April – a gig that Osmington Music will run as a Wessex Folk Festival Fundraiser.
The quiz was original and fun, we all enjoyed it and, after expenses, we have a very welcome £310.12 to add to our bank account – thank you all very much!
Quiz Mistress Tess and her lovely assistant, husband Chris, aren’t resting on their laurels. They’re busy organising the next quiz for March 18th – sign up soon to make sure you have a place.
It’s St Patrick’s Day on March 17th, so you can expect the quiz questions on the 18th to have a distinct flavour of Erin’s Green Isle about them.
The prize for the winners of this quiz will be 4 half-price tickets to see Emily Portman and Rob Harbron at Osmington Village Hall on 27th June. Described as two of the finest and most distinctive performers on the British folk scene in an inspired new collaboration, it’s a bit of a coup to have secured a booking with them – so this is a great prize!
Once again, you are invited to join in teams of up to 4, using up to two screens. Your contribution of £5 per head would be appreciated.
