On Saturday evening the OBRPMCPS held its annual Potluck and Community Quiz event at the Port Maitland Fire Hall. A good crowd enjoyed marvellous food and refreshments, checked out the “pay what you wish” book table and enjoyed the lovely atmosphere of formal table cloths and flowers – and then were treated to a lively community history quiz hosted by Squire John Crawley (pictured here) as portrayed by society President, Wilfred Allan.
The event is a fund raiser for the OBRPMCPS, but it also is just a very fun community event and get together. Participants had a friendly contest to see who could come up with the answers to questions like “Which community (given four choices) is technically an island…”. Team Brown won the team category by default, but lively discussion and factual information were the order of the day during the quiz.

The Society wishes to thank the organizing committee, headed by Nancy Curry and her crew for the great time!

The Society’s next event is the Founder’s cemetery tour and Strawberry Social to be held on July 22nd !
