Come celebrate the twentieth running of Granby’s favorite trivia contest! This year’s GranBee will be held on Friday, April 25 at Granby Memorial High School.
This year’s “buzz”worthy event will be “swarm”ing with challenging trivia questions, fantastic costumes, and a honey pot auction for a fun filled family event! Trivia questions range in topics from music, history, science, and pop culture. Teams of three will “hive” great fun battling to become the “Queen Bee” and receive the coveted “honey” of a trophy. The “buzz” on the street is that Jim Whitten will emcee this year’s event. This year the Bee will be… Sorry! Can’t spill the “bee”ns because we “hive” to keep some things a secret!
All bad bee puns aside, the GranBee is the Granby Education Foundation’s (GEF) largest fundraiser. Thanks to its local business sponsors and team participants, the GEF has raised over $500,000 which goes right back into the community by way of educational and enrichment grants to schools and community non-profit organizations.
Since its inception in 2000, the GEF has underwritten over $500,000 in grants that support our mission for continual learning for all community members through education and the arts. GEF has supported programs such as the Salmon Brook Ecology Center, the Bruce Porter Memorial Music Series, the GMHS TV production studio, nutritional programs at Holcomb Farm, Granby Celebrates Juneteenth arts program, and the Wildflower Meadow Educational Enrichment Program.
So, join us on April 25 starting at 5:30 p.m. for the silent auction and 6:30 for the main event! Let’s see which team will taste the sweet “honey” of victory and which teams will feel the “sting” of defeat. Better yet, “bee”friend two other trivia buffs and form a team to compete. Team registration is due on or before April 18, 2025. Save $50 if your team registers before March 25, 2025. Team registration and sponsorship forms are on the Granby Education Foundation website at granbyeducationfoundation.org
