Special Event

Are you a fanatic for fun facts? Assemble your dream team and head down to the pool to show off those trivia skills. Questions will span a wide variety of categories: from Elvis to Olivia Rodrigue, from Kahlo to Feynman, from Patton to Zelenskyy, and from the Scoville scale to the Richter scale so multigenerational teams whose players have wide interests may have an edge. If you don't have a team, come down anyway and we'll do our best to match you with another partner or two. Trivia battle will start at 6 pm. Teams can be 2-4 players of any age (max on any team is 4). The Grand Prize winning team will win free tickets to the Fall Pig Roast. Grab a taco or a handmade Mexican masa tamale from the MINA'S TAMALES food truck anytime after 5 pm. Save time and preorder your food. RSVP (starting June 13) to let us know if you plan to attend this event.
