Houston Harbaugh's "The Justice League" battled their way to top honors at Greater Pittsburgh Literacy Council's Third Annual Trivia Bowl on April 11, 2010. Competing this year were 29 teams who pondered questions about sports, history, Pittsburgh and more.
Some 280 guests cheered on their favorite team and bid on fabulous auction prizes including an autographed Marc-Andre Fleury jersey, dine-around town packages, items for the home and office, car detailing, sports tickets and more. In total, this year's Trivia Bowl raised nearly $60,000 for GPLC's educational programs. Proceeds will underwrite classes and tutoring for more than 150 individuals. Parents, workers and neighbors will have a chance to gain critical literacy skills that enable them to get better jobs, begin college, support their kids in school, and become more active in our community. Our sponsors and participants have made many successes possible.
Check out pictures from this year's event below! And, of course, be sure to save the date for our Fourth Annual Trivia Bowl on April 10, 2011 at St. Nicholas Greek Orthodox Church in Oakland.
