Trivia Night Success and Upcoming March Events

Well, it does seem like March has come in like a lion, doesn't it? That has not, however, dampened our genealogical spirits! Many of us gathered on Saturday night, the 2nd of March, for the tenth annual St. Louis Genealogical Society Trivia Night and had an amazing time! One of our largest fundraisers, Trivia Night never disappoints, and as you can see in the photos below, a good time was had by all.

Kudos, as always, to Trivia chairperson, Karen Goode, and her committee of hard-working volunteers for orchestrating a wonderful evening. Our moderator, Judi Donahue, had ten rounds of challenging questions for us, and the silent auction baskets, filled with donations solicited by Karen's committee and beautifully wrapped by them, were, as always, a huge hit. Thanks to the generosity of our members and our community, we raised much-needed money, had a chance to socialize, eat and drink together, and provide some nice cash prizes for our game winners. By the way, congratulations go to the St. Louis County Library table for being the night's reigning champions!
