133 people got together to enjoy a challenging quiz presented by Rotarian Tim to 18 teams. With questions on history, geography, music lyrics, TV and film, sport and much more, the grey cells ere well and truly taxed. With a raffle and the ticket money after the fish and chip suppers had been paid for, New Forest for Ukraine will be £1,650 better off thanks to those who came. We had several Rotary clubs including Bishops Waltham, Southampton Magna, Southampton Solent, Becton and District, Hythe and Waterside as well as Lyndhurst U3A and a nordic walking team. Along with our fellow New Forest Rotarians, their families and friends it was a lively and sociable evening.
Team Dinnwin lived up to their name and won the quiz. If you missed it sorry but we will do it all over again next year.
