• In what city would you find Logan International Airport?

• What was the first national park in the United States?

• What was the name of the high school in the TV show “Saved by the Bell?”

• How many Iowa counties are in the western tier of counties stretching from the Minnesota border to the Missouri border?

• Who was the last graduate to walk across the stage during the last graduation ceremony for Schleswig High School in 1994?

Questions like these, and ones with a higher level of difficulty, challenged the minds of people participating in Schleswig’s fifth annual Trivia Night on Saturday at the Schleswig Community Building.

This year the funds that were raised will go toward the community’s 125th anniversary, which will be celebrated September 13, 14, and 15.

Craig Bogatzke, the quizmaster for the night, said 25 teams signed up for the event. Teams could have as many as eight members.

Before the contest began, a German-style dinner was served.
