Literacy Volunteers to hold Trivia Bee fundraiser March 17
Literacy Volunteers Fox Valley is holding its 13th annual Trivia Bee for Literacy on Saturday, March 17 from 9 a.m. to noon at Q Center, 1405 North 5th Avenue in St. Charles.
Three-person teams will compete to answer questions on this year's theme – Bee 3D: Celebrating “B” Movies – and a variety of other topics for the chance to win awards, prizes and bragging rights for one year. A silent auction is held during the event.
The entry donation is $400 per team. Proceeds will help LVFV meet the demand for one-to-one tutoring of adults to improve their English language skills.
The format for the trivia bee gives every participating team the opportunity to compete. An emcee asks questions from the stage. Teams answer from reserved tables in the audience. They have 30 seconds to discuss answers, scribble them on paper and pass them to their table hosts. The emcee announces answers and hosts tabulate results.
The team with the most correct answers at the end of three rounds wins. Second and third place will also be awarded.
Anyone, whether a movie buff or just someone looking to have fun while benefiting a worthy cause, should visit www.lvfv.com/events/triviabee or call Peg Coker at 630-584-4428.
