Over £3000 Raised for Charity at the Nog Inn since 2008!
Since we hosted our first charity quiz night back in January 2008 we have been over whelmed by the generosity and support of our quiz goers. Each month they dig deep into their pockets to raise money for various charities (all of which have been nominated by our quiz teams) and at the last count £3,236.40 had been raised.
The quiz is held on the last Thursday of every month and new teams are always welcome. It costs £1 per player with up to about 5 people per team. All entry fees go to the charity of the winning teams choice AND the winning team will have £50 taken off their bar tab for the evening (No cash alternative I'm afraid!). We usually have a raffle during the evening as well and this varies from month to month - it is usually organised by one of our quiz goers for a charity close to their heart.
Our quiz master is the wonderful Doug Smith who gives up his free time to write and host the quiz, with the assistance of our bar manager Steve Preece who organises the music round.
Our end of year charity quiz will be held on 29 December this year starting at 6.30pm. All proceeds from this quiz will go to Help for Heros. We have decided to make Help for Heros our pub charity for 2010 and are pleased that Russ Laye who is the County Co-ordinator for Somerset will be spending the evening with us.
Unfortunately our end of year quiz is now fully booked but feel free to pop in for a drink with us and see it in action! We are now taking bookings for our January quiz (to be held on Thursday 28th January – 7.30pm) and if you fancy joining in the fun give us a bell on 01963 32998 to book your table now!
With best wishes for a very merry Christmas & Happy New Year.
Amy, Will & all the staff at The Nog Inn.
