Almost £2,000 raised by Newquay Towan Blystra Lions through their fundraising activities, will be shared between 20 local good causes at this year’s Brains of Newquay Quiz, being held at Newquay Golf Club at 7.30pm on Sunday 23 June.
The popular annual event, which has been running since 2012, requires each of the teams to have nominated a local charity or not-for-profit group to quiz for and the winning team can see up to £400 added to their cause’s coffers. There are further prizes of up to £300 for second, third place and round winners, but every cause is GUARANTEED to receive a £50 donation just for the team turning up.
So far, the following causes have quiz teams representing them: RNLI, Newquay Cormorants, NSPCC, Newquay Marine Group, Lusty Surf Lifesaving Club, Mount Edgcumbe Hospice, Age UK Govenek Centre, Children’s Hospice SW, Trenance Cottages Heritage Trust, Newquay Foodbank and Friends of Indian Queens School. So, if you fancy a fun night out and can raise a team of up to four people, get in touch as soon as possible to reserve one of the remaining places.
Entry to the quiz is free of charge but places MUST be booked in advance. So, a guarantee of £50 for your local good cause and a friendly social evening free of charge – what’s not to like!
