Buzzer Practice
We meet twice monthly at the Waynedale Library on Fridays 10:15AM-12:15PM to practice our buzzer skills. We play fun buzzer games and also use practice questions. In the middle we take a break to eat snacks and socialize. We also occasionally have times we meet just to play games or to take educational field trips. Practice is for students in grades 3-12. Email Shae Maurer maurerpe@yahoo.com to find out which dates we are meeting.
