Trivia Night Recap
How many times has the Mona Lisa been stolen?
Questions like this one had our members guessing and working together to figure out the right answers at our trivia night. In six rounds our Head of Events, Eliseo, our Vice President, August, and our former President, Tim, posed creative and sometimes challenging questions about pop culture, history, sport, geography, flags and much more. This year’s trivia even featured an amazing sound round that had our members very intrigued. The three teams partaking in the competition were keen to showcase their intellectual prowess, and it was unclear until the end who would be crowned the champion of the trivia night. After a last, extra hard bonus round we were excited to find out who won. Thanks to an amazing comeback in the second half, it was "The Revengers" who took home the victory. Congratulations to them!
We had loads of fun racking our brains together and were excited to see so many of our members at the trivia night!
Chairing Workshop Recap
On the 7th of February 2022 our esteemed member Tim Hetzer and I hosted the 2nd edition of the Chairing Workshop to give interested members the opportunity to bring chairing closer to them. Thanks to the small group of people present, we, the organisers, were allowed to deal with the topic of chairing especially thoroughly.
I would like to thank everybody for attending and Tim for hosting the workshop with me.
