Karen’s Quiz Night

Following an extremely successful Quiz Night in June 2009 Karen Towner has decided to repeat the event and is hosting another Quiz Night for the JTYAF at the Verwood Guide Hall, Manor Road on Saturday 25th September at 7pm. Tickets are £5 per person which includes a free glass of wine or lager. Feel free to bring your own drinks and nibbles as there is, surprisingly, no bar in the Guide Hall.

Karen is a committed supporter of the JTYAF with this being the third fundraising event that she has organised. The 25th September will be Karen’s second Quiz Night and she also took part in the Beachy Head Marathon in 2008 on behalf of the JTYAF.
