On Saturday, November 7th the Manchester Community Schools Foundation hosted its first Family Trivia Night at Freedom Township Hall. Seven teams competed with the "Sparklers" pulling out a last minute victory due to the Enzer/Kush family's flawless knowledge of literary characters and their corresponding books. Those in attendance said they had a great time.

The event, which replaced Crab Races this year, raised close to $2,000 for the Foundation. The funds raised will go directly back to the students of Manchester through grants awarded. Parents of current students may have noticed Foundation "stars" at Parent-Teacher conferences last week demonstrating how the Foundation has impacted their children's classrooms.

The Foundation would like to send a HUGE thank you to the generous round sponsors and those who donated prizes:
