GIVI G YCUR LL ne of Eldorado's most challenging clubs is Varsity Quiz. Our El- dorado team-mates compete among Southern Nevada's finest scholars to find out who is the best of the best in gen- eral knowledge. The club is open to anyone who enjoys a challenging game with diffi- cult questions. Questions can range from the most difficult and specialized to the most simplistic. During the games, the team-mates have to be very quick pressing the buzzer and intelligent enough to answer the questions correctly. It takes about six weeks of prep- aration for our Eldorado team-mates to be physically and mentally ready to com- pete in their first game of the year. This truly is an exciting game that will keep you on the edge of your seat at all There is intense pressure and anxiety involved during the matches. The team-mates have Mr. Clark to advise them and help lessen the pressure while their energetic minds are busy at work trying to an- swer each question correctly, win each round and win each game. The last Varsity Quiz game played this year was a close one. We lost by one point, the opposing team had 125 points and Eldorado had 124. Just because they were only one question behind does not mean that they lost totally. What counts is that they went out there and gave it all they had. No matter if our Eldor- ado team wins or loses in Var- sity Quiz, the experience of competing and knowing they did their best makes them much better individuals as a whole. fro tRo Yad G do Ch is Kum necz Jacalyn Powell Eddie Foulkrod Jack Vaugh and M Clark Back Ro Lashay Hagg rd Joe W d J k OBry t tt Pere J mmy Fehlm C laGo y Ph o grlao Fha Just Ph ll p NotPictured Jenmfersandel dand times.
