The Really Big Quiz Exeter
Have you got what it takes?
Wednesday 9th May 2012 - 6.30 p.m.
Corn Exchange, George Street, Exeter EX1 1BU
Pit your wits against other organisations in this good-natured battle to find the brainiest bunch in Exeter, in aid of the Lord Mayor's charity.
The event has raised almost £30,000 for the Lord Mayor’s charities in the last eight years and the evening gives you a chance to test your general knowledge and have a lot of fun, while raising money.
The Lord Mayor Stella Brock's charity this year is the Mark Marshall Youth Fund, which was set-up in memory of Mark who was a popular PCSO in Countess Wear before being killed in action in Afghanistan. The funds will help provide challenging activities for young people in Exeter. Now in its 9th year we want to make this the biggest Really Big Quiz ever, so book your team of five now.
