It's that time of year again and another Newlyn Christmas numbers quiz
has been produced to raise money for the Newlyn Project 2000. Last year
just over 200 quizzes were sold and 32 were returned. Of those, only 15
were totally correct. Geoff Lane of the Newlyn Project - a scheme to turn
part of the old Trinity Methodist Church in a community centre, said:
"The quiz literally went round the world. Answers were received from
Australia, Canada, every home country - and even Hayle!"
He said the quiz was available from a number of local shops including
Barron's Newsagents, Jenny's, Plants for All Seasons, Mount's Bay Fitness
and the Newlyn Village Charity shop.
"Grateful thanks to all those who are selling the quiz," said
Geoff.
"First prize is £20 with a bottle of wine for second and a
box of chocolates for third."
He said that the Newlyn Project 2000 Development Committee continued
to raise money for the renovation and improvement of Trinity on Chywoone
Hill into a Community Centre for use by all of the people of Newlyn.
"It is hoped that this year's quiz will be as successful as last
year's," said Geoff. Nearly £200 was raised and many individuals
and families spent many happy hours working out the answers. You can do
your bit by spending £1 on this Christmas quiz."
