WEEKEND: Trivia Night to test wits in Port Angeles on Saturday

PORT ANGELES — Port Angeles know-it-alls are challenged to prove their claims Saturday at the third annual Port Angeles Trivia Night.

Winners will not only be crowned Port Angeles trivia champions but will win cash prizes.

The trivia contest is a fundraiser for the Port Angeles High School Band Boosters, who raise funds to support the program by replacing aging instruments, purchasing music and providing college scholarships for graduating band members.

Doors open at 5:30 p.m. and the trivia contest begins at 7 p.m. at the Masonic Lodge, 622 S. Lincoln St.

Between the rounds, the PAHS Jazz Band will perform, and there will be silent and live auctions, door prizes and a 50/50 raffle.

Other activities will be offered between rounds while judges score each team’s entry.

Scores will be tabulated after each round and rankings posted.

Entries per team member — teams can have a minimum of six and a maximum of eight members — are $10 at the door.

Individuals are welcome to join the competition and will be formed into teams or can join an existing team.

Cash prizes will be awarded to the three top scoring teams.

Soft drinks, desserts, finger food and pizza will be available for purchase.

The use of electronic devices such as smartphones will not be allowed during the competition.

Any team caught using electronic assistance will be disqualified from the contest.

Interoffice challenges, intra-office challenges, family teams and student teams are all welcome.
