Since we have not had a quiz team in the past few years we are starting out fresh this year with a new squad, considered "J.V." for conference quizzing purposes, but our team is ready to compete. Practicing every Sunday afternoon before youth group this group of dedicated young men and coaches are studying Galatians, Ephesians, Philippians, Colossians and Philemon. A mix of quick reflexes off the buzzers, memory like a steel trap, and some team strategy makes for an exciting quiz match against another church's team. Accomplished coaching is being provided by Coaches Ed Asbury and Tori Sider, both experienced quizzers in their own teen years. We really appreciate their dedication and volunteering their time in this great ministry.
The ultimate goal for this team will be to compete for the opportunity to represent the Susquehanna conference at General Conference in Canada this summer. The team is already being encouraged to get their passports in plenty of time.

The Snowflake Bible Quiz Tournament in Hershey, was where we competed with Bible Quizzers from all over the midstate. The rules are slightly different, but the competition is real. We were in the novice division ( since this is out first year in a long time) but we played well, and took second place! Micah Isley received a trophy for being in the top 6 individual scores.
