Over 150 people took part in the Civic Society’s Annual Town Quiz with regular quiz master Glynn Wales in the interrogator’s chair – in Bishop Auckland Town Hall on Wednesday, 6th December.
The Quiz itself raised a magnificent £726
This figure was supplemented by £500, courtesy of a bequest to the Chair of the Civic Society, Dr. Robert McManners, from a grateful patient, Mr Fred Hutchinson of Howden-le-Wear, making a grand total of £1,216 for the Bishop Auckland Scanner Appeal.
The Civic Society would like to thank all those private individuals and local businesses who donated prizes for the raffle, together with Janet Strong and the staff of the Town Hall for their help in making the evening such a success.
