Europe Day QuizMonday 9 May 2011 @ 7:00pm
Free Buffet
To mark Europe Day 2011 the European Documentation Centre is organising a light-hearted EURO-QUIZ to test your knowledge of all things European – current affairs, the people and countries of Europe, food and drink, history, sport and the arts (and a few
questions about the European Union).
There is no cost to take part, and a buffet with wine and soft drinks will be provided. During the evening we will be taking a collection
for charity.
Make up a team of up to four and sign up by contacting [email protected] by 4 May 2011
