Quick, name the capital of Iceland.<\/p>\n

If Reykjavik was the first thing to come to mind, perhaps an evening of trivia is in order.<\/p>\n

Trivia-palooza, a fundraiser for Brock’s United Way campaign,<\/a> happens Friday, Nov. 16 at Club Roma in St. Catharines.<\/p>\n

So far, the University has raised more than $73,000 – nearly two-thirds of its goal of $120,000 – for the charity. Event organizers are hopeful that those eager to flaunt their accumulation of trivial knowledge will help catapult the campaign to the finish line.<\/p>\n

To participate, gather a team of up to eight people and contact the Centre for the Arts box office at 905-688-5550, ext. 3527 to book a table by Nov. 13.<\/p>\n

Tickets cost $25 per person and include a pasta dinner. A silent auction will also be held.<\/p>\n

Doors open at 6:15 p.m. with dinner at 7 p.m. Club Roma is located at 125 Vansickle Rd. For more information about Trivia-palooza, contact Allison Flynn at ext. 5527 or aflynn@brocku.ca.<\/a><\/p>\n

If trivia isn’t in the cards, donations to the United Way can still be made through payroll deduction. Contact Karen Merritt in human resources for a deduction signup form at ext. 3969.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
