We kick off our 2018-19 calendar on Wednesday evening with a Quiz Night.
Around sixty Dale supporters came down to the Flying Horse on Wednesday evening to take part in the annual Dale Trust Quiz which kick-started our events for the 2018-19 season.
Twelve teams participated in the Quiz and it was a very close run thing in the end, but Otto Van Quizmark was the winning team with 70 points.
We had a raffle with four bottles of wine available which raised £60.90 for Trust funds, and we also collected 15 new members on the evening.
A big thank you to the Flying Horse for hosting our event and feeding us with their buffet, and an even bigger thank you to all those who turned up to the support the event. Your support is appreciated.
