Test your skills, win prizes,
And, more importantly, dethrone the reigning AMIA Trivia Champs -
Team "Charles Barr"


And do it all for a good cause.
Are you game?

Do you know which George Washington's salary as president was? Or Donald Duck's middle name is? If not, you'll want to find a fellow colleague that does as you begin to form your team for AMIA's Third Annual Trivia Throwdown at this year's conference in St. Louis.

Didn't play last year? Shame on you! Here's a little on how it goes ...

Since the game is open to all categories (yes, all categories), you'll want to choose your team carefully and pick the political aficionado, the comic book collector, the sports know-it-all, and the 70's pop culture nerd. Awards will be given in the following categories: Winning Team, Most Valuable Player, Best Team Name, Best Team Cheer and Best Team Spirit. Don't be afraid to get creative with your team name or with your team's cheer (pom-poms and dance moves are permitted).

Teams will consist of 5-8 people, no more, no less. The games will commence Wednesday, November 4th at 8:00 in the evening; teams must be sitting at their table, ready to battle at 8:00pm. Use of cell phones, iPhones, blackberries or help from the audience is not only not permitted, but you'll be mocked publicaly and mercilessly the rest of the conference if you're caught.

You can sign up for a team table when you register online, but do need to send us a list of names, the team name, etc. OR you can register the old-fashioned way with a form, a pen and a stamp. Send in your money ($80 per team, even if you have the minimum of 5 people) along with the completed registration form to the AMIA Office. Team registration is due by October 28th.

Don't want to form up your own team? We'll have teams that come together just for the night (we like to call it Survivor Trivia), so sign up as an individual or in twos or threes. If you're new to AMIA, it's a great way to meet your colleagues, and if you're an AMIA conference veteran just looking to share your celebrated wisdom, here's your chance. This is a GREAT conference mentor/first time attendee event! In fact, last year's champs were a match made that night ...

Teams will form game day; so not to worry if you don't have enough to meet the minimum number of people needed. To sign up individually, same instructions - download form, send in the form and your payment ($10 per person).

If you would like to help sponsor our little game, you will receive lots of thanks and free advertising from us. We will also accept donations of your wares for game prizes, door prizes, raffles ...

All the funds from Trivia Night will go to support AMIA 's Awards Program.
