Cannock Soroptimists held a very successful Quiz night at the Barns recently.\u00a0 The quiz was one of the events planned to raise funds for Pathway, the local project providing support and refuge to women victims of domestic violence.\u00a0 Club President, Val Jones, chose Pathway as one of the local charities for the year. The club continues to provide toiletries, gifts for birthdays and Christmas and household goods for when the women are in a position to be re-housed.<\/p>\n
The quiz, organised by Soroptimist June Bould, this year attracted 14 teams \u2013 from Soroptimists, Rotarians, Hednesford Lions, 41 Club, and many other friends.\u00a0 Chris Wardle was quiz master \u2013 and in case of dispute \u2013 his answer was final!!\u00a0 All of the teams did well and there was a lively and friendly atmosphere; the winning team was \u2018Balmer\u2019s Bunch\u2019, they each won a bottle of wine.\u00a0 SI Cannock\u2019s team \u2018Spring Chickens\u2019 came a respectable second, with all other teams doing well, too and everyone learning a few new trivia facts.<\/p>\n
Supper was served during the evening and a raffle was held when everyone was very generous.\u00a0 President Elect June thanked everyone for their support: teams, Quiz Master Chris, those who had donated raffle prizes, and the Barns. The evening raised \u00a3??? which delighted everyone!<\/p>\n
