Awana Quizzing

Thomas Edison and Pocahontas competed in the regional Awana Quizzing yesterday. They faced stiff competition. They worked very hard, spending 8 extra hours attending Quiz practice as well as hours studying at home. They did great! It was the first time ever that Grace E Free Church had all of their teams place in quizzing.

Thomas Edison's team came in 4th out of 5 teams. Book 4 is the toughest because they might ask questions from the 3 previous handbooks as well. It was more challenging, and nerve wracking to be on stage, than he expected. His teams tried to buzz in during the speed round, but some of the teams buzzed in faster. He did answer 3 questions (out of ten total ) and missed them by being one word off. A little frustrating, but he did his best.


Pocahontas is in Book 2. Her team placed 2nd out of 6 teams. They were great.
