Erie Roller Derby Trivia Night at Voodoo Brewing
Roll on up to reopened brewery for raffles, prizes, food, and fun
Tuesday, May 19
It's time for Erie Roller Derby's (ERD) yearly fundraising trivia event. This year, they've expanded into a larger space that will allow for more team entries. The event will be at the newly reopened downtown location of Voodoo Brewing Company, allowing ERD to host up to 30 teams instead of only 20, as in prior years.
This event allows ERD to offset costs for the derby season. "That includes jerseys, travel, venue and practice rental fees, and more," explains Allison McCartney, AKA Gash Ketchum, ERD's public relations manager. "As a non-profit, our ability to keep running is dependent on events like this," McCartney adds.
Trivia teams can register for $40 per team with a maximum of 4 members. The expanded space allows for spectator attendance this year at a recommended $5 donation per person at the door.
The event will also include a 50/50 drawing and a basket raffle. Voodoo's kitchen and bar will also be open during the event.
The event is expected to last about two hours, and the competition will be based on general trivia across various categories. There will be prizes for first and second place, and ERD members will be mingling in attendance. McCartney says, "If trivia isn't your thing, come and hang out anyway. Voodoo has dart boards, pool tables, and cornhole boards available."
Doors at 6 p.m., trivia at 7 p.m. // Voodoo Brewing Company, 101 Boston Store Place // $40 per team or $5 suggested donation for spectators // For tickets and info: tickets.eriereader.com
