St. James Social Night: Back to the 90's Trivia Extravaganza
Last Saturday, the St. James Community Centre was transported back to the vibrant 90s as 150 enthusiastic attendees gathered for the highly anticipated "Back to the 90's Trivia" night. It was an evening filled with nostalgia, laughter and competitive fun, making it a memorable event for all who attended.
The costumes were a highlight of the night, showcasing creativity and a love for the 90s. Among the standout outfits were the Jamaican bobsled team, Romy and Michelle, Mario and Luigi, Mia and Vincent from Pulp Fiction, the nuns from Sister Act, Plucka Duck and the Hey Hey Crew, Wayne and Garth from Wayne's World, the Spice Girls, Happy Gilmore, Andre Agassi, and many more. The effort put into the costumes added an extra layer of fun and authenticity to the evening.
Guests were treated to a plentiful spread of food, ensuring no one went hungry as they engaged in the lively trivia competition. The trivia questions spanned a wide range of 90s pop culture, music, movies, and historical events, making for an exciting and challenging experience. Teams battled it out in a friendly yet competitive spirit, with everyone eager to prove their 90s knowledge.
The event also featured a raffle with fantastic prizes, the highlight being the wine barrow won by the Skilbeck family (Prep). All prizes were drawn and have since been collected from the office by those who weren't present on the night.
A special thank you goes out to everyone who donated and attended the evening, contributing to its great success. The event raised $4177, which will benefit our school community. Additionally, heartfelt thanks to everyone who stayed to help clean up, ensuring the Community Centre was left spotless.
As the night progressed, the dance floor saw plenty of action, with attendees dancing to their favorite 90s tunes and capping off the night with joyful energy.
Overall, the St. James Social Night: Back to the 90's Trivia was a resounding success, bringing together the community for an evening of fun, nostalgia, and camaraderie. Thank you to everyone who made this event possible!
