What a night! Thanks to everyone who came out for VES vs. VPA Trivia Night and brought such great energy.
The food delivered, the competition got fierce, and somewhere between the tricky questions and big laughs, plenty of new connections were made.
Shoutout to the winning team—a perfect mix of VES and VPA, proving that blending the rosters was the real winning formula.
Until next time!
