WorldQuest 2023

News

If you love trivia contests, this event is for you! The International Relations Council is hosting WORLDQUEST 2023 again this year and all ESU members and Friends of ESU are invited to attend.

Teams of eight representing area businesses, universities, nonprofit organizations, community groups, ambitious students, and globetrotters put their global knowledge to the test. There will be six rounds of ten questions covering topics like global affairs, geography, world languages and cultures, history, and more in this fun and interactive competition. The winning team takes home the traveling trophy, while second-place and third-place teams win valuable prizes.

Last year ESU sponsored a table of eight and we would like to sponsor a table of eight again this year, perhaps two ESU tables if enough interest.

The program includes a buffet-style meal featuring cilantro grilled chicken breast, grilled teriyaki salmon, Asian slaw, garlic lemon ginger broccoli, sticky rice, vegetarian lo mein, and fortune cookies. Coffee, hot tea, beer, wine, and dessert will also be served.

When: Wednesday, April 26, 2023, 6:00 to 9:00 pm

Where: Pierson Auditorium, 5000 Holmes Rd., on UMKC Campus. Once you arrive at the auditorium, there will be a table to purchase your ticket.

Tickets: $60 per person. Cash, check, or credit card accepted at the door on arrival.

Parking: Best covered parking is on levels 5 and 6 of the Cherry Street Garage, 5005 Oak St., a short walk to Pierson Auditorium.

Please RSVP to Jeff Schnabel if you can attend. (816) 878-1239 or jschnabelkc@gmail.com.
