Friendly Competition and Connection at Trivia Night

Nov22

We were so happy to come together, in person, for our third annual Trivia Night. Over 70 members and friends of TBE gathered in the social hall on November 5 for a night of fun that began with a beautiful Havdalah service led by Cantor Jacob Niemi. 

This year a few new highlights added to the fun and helped our fundraising efforts:

  • Wine Pull: Participants were encouraged to pick a number and receive the corresponding bottle of wine to enjoy, for a $20 donation. All wine was donated by members of the TBE Board of Trustees. This netted almost $200 in donations.
  • “Heads or Tails” and “Dead or Alive”: These fun games were led by Carly and Brian Jacobson, netting almost $100 in donations. 
  • Video questions from Rabbi Jonathan Biatch: submitted as he was biking around Israel.
  • Babysitting: for children whose parents were busy showing off their trivia skills

This night of quizzes and camaraderie netted $1,500 to support TBE’s programs and services. 

Thank you to those who helped plan the night:

And, most of all, thank you to all the participants who came to have fun and support TBE!
