Seven teams vied for prize money at the annual Trivia Potluck meeting.
Marilyn Anthony
Our annual Jewish Trivia/Potluck evening was a wonderful fun event with seven teams vying for the huge prize money. Although the potluck was supposed to be only appetizers and desserts, it was a veritable feast. The trivia was wildly entertaining with many comments from the participants including historical information. Since so many of the answers were names, everyone would have done much better in their younger years when our memories were better!
