Alumni Trivia III:
The REAL Contest
Contest Is Over! However, See How You Would Have Done!
Here's a test of DTHS trivia (maybe general knowledge more than "trivia," but who cares?) and history that alumni from all years have an equal chance of winning. The entry with the most correct answers to the questions before November 1, 2002, will be declared the winner. Submit answers via e-mail, or mail to DTHS Alumni Assoc., PO 5372, Deptford NJ 08096. The winner will receive an Alumni Prize Pack (available in the Fall) and be the guest of the Alumni Association at a future Alumni Buffet Breakfast! (Out-of-state Alumni will receive a comparable gift certificate.)
So, get out those yearbooks (maybe make a trip to the school or town library) and almanacs, and get busy! Good luck!
