1ST SWOA COVID-19 Trivia Challenge
Concept: We will be hosting a webX trivia challenge. The trivia challenge will be conducted in 2 phases. Phase 1 will be completed by zone consecutively over 4 days. Phase 2 will be completed the following Monday with the winner’s from each zone going head to head until a champion is selected.
Questions: The questions will be from the following categories: Cadet History, Cadet General Knowledge, Junior Canadian Ranger History, Junior Canadian Ranger General Knowledge, Canadian Forces History and Canadian Forces General Knowledge. Note: The answers will be based on the most current information available.
Execution: WO Milloy will be the only person reading the questions. WO Steinmar will be the time keeper and Sgt Arpin will be the score keeper. If there is a discrepancy in the question or answer, the challenge will stop and the 3 TSC’s will confer and come up with a decision which will be final. If a question is answered incorrectly, the correct answer will not be given. This is to ensure fairness for all of the participants. If you would like the answer to any questions after the challenge is completed, we will provide them through your chain of command in your Corps/Sqn.
Rules: Each Corp or Sqn will be allowed up to 2 cadets per team (any rank) (each team must have video enabled so they can be seen).The questions will be available on a slide and will also be read by WO Milloy. Once the question has been read you will have 5 seconds to answer. WO Steinmar will notify you when 5 seconds are up and that will signify that no more time will be allocated to you. If you start to answer when WO Steinmar calls time we will allow you to respond with an answer. The order in which the Corps and Sqns questions will be asked will be based on how the Zone Training Officer submits the spreadsheet to us. Note: If a Corp or Sqn misses their day for their zone, they will not be allowed to participate in another zones day and forfeit the competition.
*Any Corp or Sqn member from their respective zone will be allowed to dial in and listen to the trivia challenge for moral support. Please note that if any person other than the participant speaks or answers any question during the challenge, they will be disconnected from the web x/teleconference. In addition the Corps or Sqn who’s question it was will get a 0 for an incorrect answer.*
Date/Time: Zone 4 – Wed 10 June at 19:00. The finale between the winners of each zone will be on the Mon 15 June at 1900.
