August 7, 2023<\/strong><\/p>\n

Kumbia State School P&C’s major annual fundraiser is always a little bit crazy … and Saturday night was no different!<\/p>\n

The Memorial Hall was packed to the rafters for the annual Brain Drain trivia night, which by our reckoning is the 28th year the event has been held.<\/p>\n

The theme for 2023 was “Rock’n’Roll” so colourful costumes – and even more colourful team names – abounded.<\/p>\n

For example, there were “Geriatric and the Pacemakers”, the “Nacho Average Team” and “Old Farts and Sweet Tarts”.<\/p>\n

P&C president Jess Simpkins said the event had gone off “really, really well” with 24 teams taking part.<\/strong><\/p>\n

“We are extremely happy with how it all went,” Jess said on Monday.<\/p>\n

“Over $5000 (was raised) but final calculations are still being made.<\/p>\n

“Thank you to our generous sponsors and teams!”<\/p>\n

The overall competition winners were “The Frankie J. Holdens” followed by “The Red Hot Trivia Peppers” and “All Rock No Roll”.<\/strong><\/p>\n

The “Village Idiot People” won the prize for the Best Dressed team.<\/p>\n

The evening was compered by Dean Cullen, from Maidenwell, and JC Catering (Judy Crawford and her team) kept the food flowing all night.<\/p>\n

They may have only barely recovered from the weekend, but the P&C volunteers have already started planning for next year’s event, which will be held on August 3, 2024.<\/p>\n
