What happens when a group of women designs a whole new program for The Women of Quail Creek (TWOQC)? A really fun time, that’s what! Several members of TWOQC gathered in late July for an evening of Jeopardy hosted by none other than Pam “Alexa Trebek” Rodgers, president-elect of TWOQC. Six lucky contestants vied for prizes during two rounds of games in the customary style of Jeopardy.
First-place winners for each game, Kathi Krieg and Ann Nease, won a $40 cash prize, while second-place winners Deborah Bryant and Joy Sack won a $25 gift certificate to the Grill. The third-place winners, Dodie Prescott and Marilyn Beim, each won a bottle of wine!
The evening was conceived by TWOQC’s program committee with questions and answers being contributed by Kathe Alves, Joan Hay, Barbara Kittle, Peggy McGee and Janice Pell. As the IT Master, Marianne Cobarrubias developed the game software and ran the game and Jeopardy music. Others who contributed to the game’s success were Pat Neel, Jeanne Stevens, Pat Bencic and Irene Broderick.
Plans are underway to further develop the fun, so look for another round of Jeopardy, TWOQC style, in the future.
