The Mt. Gretna Area Historical Society is holding another trivia event after its first successful venture into the contest format also known as Quizzo.
Planned for the afternoon of Sunday, April 7 at Mount Gretna Firehall, the event is being organized by Historical Society board members Chic Rhoads and Marcie Lloyd.
If You Go….
“So You Think You Know Gretna”
Sunday, April 7, 2pm-4pm
Mount Gretna Firehall
RSVP’s encouraged
This community gathering will feature four rounds of questions about Mt Gretna, Chautauqua, and Campmeeting, as well as questions about different events, dates, theater, music, etc. Prizes will be awarded at the end, and light refreshments will be served.
“It’s about what you know but also what you can learn,” explained Mt. Gretna Area Historical Society President Sue Hostetter.
The first trivia event was held in January 2017 around Campmeeting and Chautauqua’s 125th anniversary. Questions ranged from Mt. Gretna’s early 1890’s history to the modern day. Here are some example questions they asked the first time.
Q: What was the name of the Native American woman who had a gift shop attached to Kauffman’s Store?
Q: What year was the first Chautauqua Outdoor Arts and Crafts Show?
