First Mardi Gras is pleased to report that the fundraiser Trivia Night held on Monday 5th February at the Bank Hotel, Newtown was a huge success. Over 100 people attended the event, with teams competing for the major prize, a Dirty Dozen brewery tour sponsored by Young Henrys. The team prize was won by the Young Ones but there were plenty of fabulous raffle prizes also won. Raffle prizes included a framed original linocut, tickets to the Brandenburg Orchestra, Sydney Symphony Orchestra, Australian Museum, Art Galley and Dendy Cinemas.

Funds raised will be applied to supporting low income 78ers travel to Sydney for the 40th Anniversary and contributing to staging of 78er Anniversary events.

There were many requests for a repeat trivia night so watch this space!
