"We let the students select an idea for their fundraiser and they chose a Trivia Night. They had many great well thought out ideas and worked hard toward their goal. We work to have events lead by the students but as their advisor I was concerned with the logistics of the event. Your program brought the night together. The ease of editing the questions to include easy questions for the younger children and still have challenging questions for the experienced trivia players was wonderful. The night was a resounding family event."

Susan B.

Thanks Kevin and quizrunners staff."
