The Great Trivia Challenge

After an unexpected 3-year delay, the Bible Hill Kinsmen along with a special guest will host the 8th Annual “The Great Trivia Challenge”. This is an event where teams of 8 people – co-workers, friends, or family – will come together to play rounds of trivia. We anticipate having a sold-out crowd competing against each other and testing their knowledge in sports, music, entertainment, history, and more!

There will be lots of food, music, a cash bar, a silent auction and more that will take place throughout the night.

“The Great Trivia Challenge” will be one of our largest fund-raisers of the year. Proceeds of this event will go towards STEPs on Arthur and other community projects supported by the Bible Hill Kinsmen.

STEPs on Arthur offers programs and services to adults with intellectual disabilities that reside within Colchester County. Emphasis is placed on individual skill development in the areas of vocational training, health and wellness, relationship building and community participation. STEPs offers 10 programs for 80 clients, and are have been long-standing partners in our community. The Kinsmen Club of Bible Hill is proud to support this phenomenal organization once again through the Great Trivia Challenge, as part of our commitment towards their new Delaney House facility.

The registration fee is $360.00 and deadline for registration is February 17th.

Get your team registered early, support a great cause, and enjoy “The Great Trivia Challenge!”

STEPs on Arthur has undergone significant changes in recent years, expanding their space from one building to two. The renovations done at Delaney House are extensive and they have included innovative solutions for accessibility at the core of their spaces. The building is open and accessible, designed to go well above the current standards for accessibility. They have barrier free access to all cash stations with lowered counters, audio and visual prompts at donation drop off location, sensored door openers, barrier free seating areas in café and on patio, contrasting wall and floor colors and electronic codes available at apartment entrances for ease of access. Several barrier free washrooms and one barrier free change room also included and exterior walkways all have sloped access to entrances.

They offer ten different vocational training programs and most of these share space in Delaney House and Rotary House. As a non-profit, operating two social enterprises, having a more accessible workspace has meant they have more flexibility in how clients participate and customers access the spaces. Clients with a wide variety of skills can work on many different tasks and receive the support they need in space they can use efficiently.
