OLLI Insider:
Your Questions Answered

Dear OLLI Insider,

I don't know anything about how to play Trivia and none of my friends are able to go, so I wasn't going to sign up. But...it does sound like fun, what should I do?

Signed,
Trivia Trisha


Dea r Trivia Trisha,

You should ABSOLUTELY sign up!  It's so much fun, and you really don't need to know anything about trivia.  You are at a table of 8 and you all put your heads together to come up with answers- no pressure.  It's all about getting together and having a good time, for a good cause -- OLLI!  

We encourage everyone to sign up, whether your friends can go or not, because we can place you at a table with other OLLI members.

Sincerely,
