Federation Quiz 2017



Pat Henderson, Pat D Shaw, Dorothy Waller and Jayne Spaven made up Thorpe Hesley's team this year with the biggest entry ever of almost 40 teams at two venues.  Once we found a table there was the chance of some 'shopping' at the WI stall before the serious business of the night.

With questions on a Nautical theme, Pot Luck,  famous people, places and faces we soon got into our stride with Pat H proving an efficient scribe as we all scribbled suggested answers down and Pat tried to make sense of them.  After a low-scoring first round we ended up with a creditable score of 62 pts with Firbeck and letwell WI  in 3rd place with 66 pts,  Penistone with 67 pts and winners Ravenfield with 68 pts.  (So we didn't disgrace ourselves!)


After the quiz we enjoyed lovely refreshments provided by Whiston WI
and had the chance for a natter - both amongst ourselves as well as friends from other WI's.

A lovely Federation evening - well done Lorna and Team.
