Location and Parking
Trivia for the People is at 1140 W. Monroe. The loft space in the west loop is being donated, so please be mindful of that and try your best not to spill or break anything :). There is street parking as well as a lot with 40 spots available at Kolcraft Enterprises, 1100 W. Monroe. Anyone who parks in this lot needs to display a United Working Families sign in their window- we will have a volunteer located in the parking lot handing those out. Remember, there are only 40 spots, so if you can take public transportation or find a ride, please do so.
Registration
When you arrive, please go to 'team registration' at check in and tell the volunteer your team name and your last name. Please make sure all members of your team are aware of your team name beforehand. The team captain will get a packet with materials needed for trivia, including a sign to be displayed on your table.
Trivia
Please arrive between 5:30-6pm to allow time for parking, registration, etc. Trivia begins promptly at 6:30pm and finishes at 9pm. The trivia team winners get a prize!
Cheating ... for a cause
You can give your team an advantage...for a price! At the beginning of the night, you can bid on a unionized University of Chicago graduate student ringer to join your team (especially useful for the science round, maybe?). Throughout the night, a select number of "free answer passes" will be for sale. Winner of best team name and best team uniform (judged by our celebrity judges) also get one free answer pass.
Food and Drinks
Pizza, vegetable skewers, cookies, and one drink are included in your ticket price (sponsoring teams get additional drink tickets). Additional drinks are available for a suggested donation of $5, so bring cash! We will have wine and punch as well as water and non-alcoholic drinks.
See you Thursday!
