Mark your calendar – the 22nd annual Knowledge Bowl will be held on Monday, February 8, at the San Juan Community Theatre. Our fabulous Friday Harbor Jazz Band will begin performing at 6:30 and the FH Middle School PTA will be offering baked treats in the lobby before and during the event. There will be raffle items during intermission as well.
The competition begins at 7:00 PM. Teams will consist of the 8 graders, a team of freshmen/sophomores, and one of 11th and 12th graders, going head to head with 4 local service group teams: Kiwanis, Soroptimists, Lions, and Rotary. Groups will match wits to answer tricky questions on a range of topics. The event will be emceed this year again by Brent Snow, School Board member, with entertainment during intermission by the Jazz Band.
The Knowledge Bowl is presented each year by the San Juan Public Schools Foundation. Through its main fundraising events, the Phone-a-Thon and Business Partnership Program in the school directory, the Foundation this year has donated over $100,000 to supplement our local public education needs!
Tickets for this fun family event are 5.00 for adults and 3.00 for kids, and are available at the door the night of the event. Come and cheer on your favorite team!!
