Virtual Trivia Night
Friday, October 9th at 7:00PM
Our first-ever Library Literati Virtual Trivia Night Event was a blast! There were incredible costumes, punny questions and answers, lots of laughs and cheering, and, of course, a few technical difficulties. Everyone who came out supported TCPL while they were having fun with friends and family. Trivia Master Bob Proehl kept things rolling along and provided questions that really kept people on their toes. Thanks to Bob, and to all our participants--they are now Library Literati!
