CFNA held its eighth annual Trivia Night on Saturday, November 14th, at Webster Gardens Lutheran Church with almost 300 in attendance. They were welcomed by Pastor Geis and enjoyed a delicious mostaccioli dinner. We thank Rich and Charlie’s for their donation of salad and bread, and Peace and Concordia Lutheran Churches for the delicious homemade cookies. Following the meal, trivia competition and bingo/bunco games began. Joanie Harwell and Stanish Stanley read this year’s trivia questions. Jerry and Joyce Birk served as bingo callers. Marge Schreiber led the bunco games. Throughout the evening, a silent auction offering baskets, gift certificates, and a wonderful assortment of other items was held.

Many helping hands contributed to the success of the evening. Volunteers sought and picked up donations, prepared food, wrote trivia questions, organized registration, sorted auction items, set up tables and chairs, and served in countless other ways. New Americans Folk Dancers, under the direction of Diana Wolf, entertained the attendees during one of the trivia breaks.
