Subject: Plans for Our Trivia Fundraiser
1Hi Dalia, Our trivia fundraiser is taking shape. I met with the student activities adviser after school, and she approved our idea for a Friday evening event. The money will help replace worn equipment in the student recreation room. Before we announce anything, though, we need a plan that explains how the evening will work.
2The office has reserved the multipurpose room for us. We should recieve the room key from the adviser before setting up. There are folding tables in the storage area beside the stage. The custodian asked us to leave a clear path between the entrance and the back wall.
3For the game itself, I suggest four rounds with a short break halfway through. Each team could choose a name and write its answers on a single sheet. We should include questions about several subjects so that students with different interests can contribute. I can draft questions about geography and everyday technology if you handle music and word puzzles.
4My main concern is making the directions easy to follow. Instead of reading a long list of rules at the start, we could put a brief guide on each table. A practice question would show teams how to submit an answer. We also need to explain how tied scores will be settled before the final round begins.
5Could you send me your ideas by Wednesday? Please include any supplies we need to borrow and the names of students who can stay afterward to clean up. I will combine our notes into a message for the adviser. Once she checks the plan, we can invite teams to sign up. Thanks, Bastian
