Sixteen teams battled it out over six rounds of ten questions at Wistaston Memorial Hall’s annual quiz for the Fred Lorimer trophy.

The quiz-setters were Peter and Christina Wainwright who had organised their second quiz at the hall.

The raffle was organised by Glenys White and Meurig Jones for prizes which were all donated. The raffle made £87.

Half-time refreshments were organised by Audrey Astbury, John Astbury, Eileen Bamber, Kathleen Conroy, Margaret Beresford, and Helen Heath.

The winning team was called ‘The Scrabblers’ with 52 points. Joint second were ‘The Hall Stars’ and ‘Westward Ho!’ with 51 points.

The Fred Lorimer trophy was presented by John Cooke, president of the hall’s management committee.

Event organiser John White said: “We had another enjoyable and successful community event, which raised over £150 for Hall funds.

“We thank everybody who supported this annual event for the Fred Lorimer trophy.”
