Who says the SPJ is parochial. We do what we can to help other journalism groups all the time.
For instance:
Another prominent journalism group is sponsoring a fun evening of competition, trivia, great food and fellowship.
The Asian American Journalists Association's DC chapter presents its Trivia Bowl on Friday, Nov. 19, from 6-9:30 p.m. at National Public Radio headquarters, 635 Massachusetts Ave NW, Washington, DC. That’s near Metro’s Mt. Vernon/Convention Center station on the Yellow and Green Lines.
Competitors can register individually for $35 or in teams of 10 for $300. Teams are strongly encouraged. Individuals will be grouped on teams on a first come, first served basis.
Sandra Endo of CNN Newsource will serve as this year's emcee. The event includes food and non-alcoholic drinks. Raffle tickets will be sold for fabulous prizes including lunch with the Washington Post's Roxanne Roberts, a Bluetooth set, dinner for two at the Blue Duck Tavern in the Park Hyatt and a City Fitness training package.
The prize is the famed Lamp of Knowledge, currently in the possession of Team McClatchy, last year's winner.
A limited number of spectator tickets are also available for $20 per individual. Donations are welcome, too
The Trivia Bowl AASA-DC’s annual fundraiser for student scholarships, stipends and other programs.
