Quarantine Quiz #12

The Grand Finale!

Wed 1st July 2020

Thanks to Charlie and Alice for our final Wednesday Zoom quiz which was excellent! It was obvious a huge amount of effort had gone into producing it, like all the quizes before.

Congratulations to this week's winner, Sammy IJ - and to Sam B and Sasha T who took equal second. As this was the Grand Final there are swag prizes in the post to the top 3 - you are only as good as your last quiz!

Summer is now here and lockdown is easing, so our successful series of Wednesday evening quizes comes to an end to enjoy the summer evenings outdoors, hopefully on our RS Aeros! This was the 12th weekly RS Aero Class quiz hosted by the weekly winners over Zoom and proving a fabulous way for sailors in the Class to stay in touch and entertained whilst grounded.

You can test yourself Charlie and Alice's quiz with the rounds added as a facebook album here;

https://www.facebook.com/media/set/?set=oa.2190573367755903&type=3

The answers will be added to the album next week.
