SYRCL’s Quiz Night was a Rollicking Success

SYRCL’s Quiz Night was a Rollicking Success

Due to the pandemic, SYRCL hasn’t been able to have an in-person Quiz Night since 2019. In the interim, we re-imagined the event to meet current in-person event dynamics. This year, Quiz Night was held on 3/12/24 at Gold Vibe Kombuchary from 6-9 pm.

Participants tested their knowledge of all sorts of esoteric and pop culture information, from geography to history to cinema to music to sports to the Yuba River watershed. Emcee Maddie Davis, SYRCL’s Community Engagement Manager, did an amazing job of keeping participants on task, engaged, and focused on fun.

Twenty-one teams competed during the event. At the end there had to be a tiebreaker between two teams, Three Drink Funny and the Hot Saws. Three Drink Funny was the eventual winner.

We have begun to install Mile Marker posts throughout the South Yuba Canyon. On Wednesday, February 28th, SYRCL staff worked with California State Parks to install trail mile markers at Bridgeport State Park and the trails near 49 crossing. There is still a lot of work to be done and we need your help.
