Mardi Gras Trivia Night

 St. Mark's Mardi Gras Trivia night was a wonderful benefit to support the St. Mark Youth Ministry and their summer trips to Montreat and Mobile, Alabama!  This is our Youth's largest fundraiser which earned several thousand dollars and included many fun activities in addition to the trivia.
 These were the winners in best decorated table, although the tables were already beautifully decorated.

 There was also a silent auction with gift baskets and gift cards for local restaurants, health clubs, theaters.


 There was an opportunity to have Pastor Steve at your table (for a price) in addition to several games like "Dead or Alive" and attendance prizes.  As one participant said, "They really kept things moving along---never a lull."

 While we brought our own food, beverages and snacks were provided.  It was great fellowship, even if we didn't know all of the answers.  Here are some of the sample questions: "What is the speed limit on Claymont Drive?"(25) "Who was the 22nd president?" (Grover Cleveland) What does the acronym "laser" mean? (light amplification by stimulated emission of radiation)
