Around 70 community members braved the icy winter conditions on February 23 for the annual Friends of Patagonia Library Trivia Night fundraiser. With hosts Judy Clegg and Lynn Davison, the night was full of laughter and fun. The theme of the game was “All About US,” the “US” referring to United States related scientific, historic, and pop culture facts. At this time, it’s estimated that over $2,000 were raised for the Friends of the Library group.
Thank you to everyone who volunteered their time and talents to make the event so entertaining, and thank you to all of the people who came out to support the library.
