Team Trivia
4 Replies
Does anyone know of any not-too-far venues that have a weekly team trivia night? Not the electronic/NTN type, but actual live team trivia? Smartypants sounds fun and all, but I'm thinking more…Continue

Erin replied to Scott's discussion Village Sticker Patrol in Private Parking Lots?"They got us while parked in our space on our property off the alley...so yes it is typical and I completely agree it shouldn't be allowed!"
Erin replied to Dave!'s discussion Pediatric Dentist"I second Dr. Benka. She is fanstatic for the whole family. I highly recommend her - no nonsense, and doesn't try to sell you treatments you don't need. "
Erin replied to wojo4452's discussion Granite Countertops - Recommendations"We recently did ours and had a terrible experience, so I can tell you who not to use...Stone City. Right price, terrible service and sloppy install."
Erin replied to David Deutsch's discussion Summer Camps"River Forest Community Center has a full time camp. They do three sessions and then one mini-session to get you within a week of school starting. We did it last year and were very happy with it."
Erin replied to Ann's discussion Nail Salons"Amanda, I would steer clear...I went twice, the first time I was somewhat impressed, the second ensured never returning. The owner is very nice, however, she did a hatchet job on my nails and used some sort of chemical that dried out my…"
Erin replied to Krista's discussion District 97 Test Scores Are Out"Agreed, NCLB is not achievable and makes scores like this seem worse than they really are. NCLB is an increase by some percentage each year until all schools are at 100% pass rate on standardized tests. It has shifted focus from learning…"
Erin replied to Kandice Kidd's discussion Who is your internet and cable provider?"We have the bundle with AT&T U-verse and it's about 170, but that is including the upgrade to the highest speed internet, 300 channels and Showtime/Movie package, DVR, HD and the phone. With the regular channel package and normal…"
Erin replied to Becca's discussion Basement flooding"No, we have a sump pump that works perfectly, just not when it is flowing readily under the basement door. This was the storm sewers being too full and flooding the streets, yards, etc."
Erin replied to Becca's discussion Basement flooding"We have a stand pipe and it didn't help us any :(. Our issue is that the back stairwell drains into the sump and it gets to a point where it can't keep up, so it all comes under the door.
I've said many times today that…"
Erin replied to Becca's discussion Basement flooding"Chris, us again too...the whole block (again). We have a consensus that the village has changed something that is causing this. People that have lived here 20 years have never had this issue and now its annually. I realize these…"
Erin replied to Magical Minds Studio - Haj's discussion Magical Minds Studio Now Offering After School Program"This is very exciting, any ideas on the transportation cost? Will there be transportation from all Oak Park schools (Whittier in particular ;))?
"
Erin replied to Josh Eisenberg's discussion Why can't teachers make a lot?"The flyer today was just silly, and that's the best word I can come up with for it. The back had the top 100 salaries in the district and at the bottom, put the average as it were the average in D97. 130K is NOT the average of all…"
