Holy Family School, Rockland: Initial Success! 4/10/10

First timers, Holy Family (Rockland) held a sold-out Teamwork Trivia night at the Holiday Inn. The 330 people filled the ballroom to the max, as they played the game. The huge silent auction, the one featured live auction item, 10 class baskets, “The Money Tree” and a huge 50/50 Raffle (awarded $1700.00) help raised the total. The committee headed by Christine Fleming was prepared with several time-saving methods for the items. The helpful 8th graders were instrumental in assisting throughout the night. By the way, the winning table (Rockland’s Teamwork Trivia Champions) returned the cash prize to the school’s coffers. It was close quarters for dancing but that didn’t stop some of the revelers at the end of the evening.

Arlington Catholic HS “Quiz Night” 3/20/10

Sold Out! With 43 tables of 10, that’s right, 430 people at the school’s remodeled gym.

Tewksbury Memorial HS 3rd Annual. 3/11/10

Tewksbury Memorial HS held its 3rd Annual Teamwork Trivia Night on Mach 11, 2010 at the Tewksbury Country Club. It was sold out (again) which consists of 31 tables of 10 people each. At the beginning of the last round, 15 tables were within 10 points of the leader. The winning table and second place got a generous cash prize.

Lincoln School, Brookline Nets $4000.00. 3/6/10

Time to match wits with the bunch from Brookline. The one-night fundraiser netted a big $4000.00 . On March 6, 2010, teachers and parents gathered to engage in another (2nd Annual) TeamworkTrivia Night. There was no room for another table due to event’s popularity. The sold-out event had a new twist, “Dress Code - In Effect”. This means that the table that decorated themselves or the table in a theme, got extra points. Since the game was decided by 2 points, next year’s tables will really be decked out!
The “GhostBusters” were targeting last year’s winners called “Caesar’s Ghosts”. However, the “BlackEyed Peas” were triumphant as they danced with their gold medals. (BTW, all 3 of these teams got Dress Code points)

Norwood’s Jimmy Czehowski’s 2nd Annual Memorial Fundraiser nets $4700.00! March 5, 2010

On March 5th, 2010, Mrs. Betsy Czehowski, hosted the 2nd Annual Fundraiser for (her son Jimmy) the Jimmy Czehowski Memorial Scholarship Fund. The proceeds added up to a whopping $4700.00! The Norwood Elks was packed to capacity with 250 people which was a tribute Jimmy’s popularity. The 50/50 raffle split a $1400 pot! The autographed framed game shirt of 1967 Cy Young Award winner, Boston’s Jim Lonborg was just one of the featured items. Betsy was proud to say that three $1500 scholarships were given out last year, to Norwood High School students.

The TeamworkTrivia match was so close that it brought two teams to 4-overtimes! The winning question was what nuclear plant is mentioned in Jimmy Buffett’s “Volcano”?

The Tobin School Goes “Half And Half”. 1/23/10

The teachers from the Needham, Westwood and Natick locations enjoyed their first Teamwork Trivia Night on January 23, 2010. The plan included leaving time at the end of the evening for dancing. The plan was successful. The five rounds (instead of 7) of trivia were a fun battle between teachers at the different locations. After the gold medals were given out and the Chinese food was finished, tensions were released by dancing to, in this case, hits from the 80′a and early 90’s…. let’s just say, can’t touch this!

St. Jude’s School, Waltham January 22, 2010

The parents and teachers at St.Jude’s enjoyed their 4th Annual TeamworkTrivia Night on January 22, 2010. The big turn-out brought all ages to the auditorium with plenty of sharpened Number 2 pencils. The “Mystery Mugs” were a quick seller. They were almost sold out by the end of the of the first round. The gift baskets were a hit, also. Some teams still wonder what Tiger Woods “real” first name is.

Fun night out for the parents of the North Reading Football Club. On October 2, 2009, the Wakefield Elks was the venue for the 150 parents to raise money for their kids sports programs. The energetic parent’s group were good sports as the questions were answered. The raffles, held in between rounds were a good value for the lucky ticket holders - local businesses were very generous.
