Mad Hatters win Annual Quiz

Report Date 14/10/13

This was the 18th Quiz night and this years winners of the Dreadnought Trophy with the "Mad Hatters", who have taken part every year winning with 72 points from "Team Squiggle" (63 points) and "Universally Challenged" (62 points). In total 18 teams took part.

Our thanks to Ann & Ed Ault for marking the answer sheets and adding up the scores, to Mandy, Fiona and Jo for once again providing the "quizzies" with another well received hot supper and of course to our regular quiz master Billy Ault who each year manages to test all of our brains with a range of challenging questions.

Thanks also to Stoke Fruit Farm for their continued sponsorship of this event, and to those who donated apples and raffle prizes and to Mandy Hawke for organising the event.

The Raffle was organised and managed by two Scouts, Dominic Allgood and Craig Cooper who have been invited to represent Hmpshire on two International expeditions in Japan and Tanzaneer respectively. We expect these Scouts to raise their own money for these expeditions which also involve a period of Service to the local communities they will visit and their work on the raffle is part of this.

The profit from the quiz was £570 which will be used to support the 220 young people from Hayling who wear their Scout Uniform each week and the Raffle made £270 for the Jamboree fund.

A great night all round with of course our thanks to all of the teams that supported this event.!
