Less Trivial: A Game Night!
The CNIB Foundation in Nova Scotia will be hosting a unique trivia night designed to be a little less trivial! All questions asked during the evening are designed to be figured out in teams (that you’re assigned at the beginning of the night) rather than just testing how much trivial knowledge you know! It may include making sound effects, figuring out word puzzles, or making educated guesses. Call in if you are ready to be a little silly and have a lot of fun!
