The 20th Annual Big Brothers Big Sisters of Oxford County Trivia Nite wrapped up on March 20 at the Reeves Community Complex, marking two decades of spirited competition, community generosity, and unforgettable moments.

The sold out event brought together teams from across the county, all eager to test their knowledge, support local youth, and attempt to dethrone the reigning champions, Smarty Pants. More than 400 participants filled the hall, forming teams of six to eight players who came prepared for ten rounds of challenging questions on pop culture, history, sports, science, and classic trivia stumpers.

Guests enjoyed a lively atmosphere complete with snacks, a light late night lunch, and a cash bar. The popular 50/50 raffle returned, along with the always strategic Lucky Stickers, which teams used to hedge their bets or double down on answers they felt confident about.

The event served as a major fundraiser for Big Brothers Big Sisters of Oxford County, supporting mentorship programs that help young people build confidence, resilience, and meaningful connections. Organizers expressed gratitude for the overwhelming community support and the volunteers who made the night possible.

Plans are already underway for the 21st annual event, with many teams vowing to return and reclaim their shot at the trophy.
