The PRI Center for Paleontology is a multidisciplinary initiative of the Prairie Research Institute at the University of Illinois Urbana-Champaign. The Center is home not only to a vast collection of fossils (over 3.5 million!) from all over the world, but also to a dedicated team of research paleontologists and collections professionals who care for those collections and undertake cutting-edge research in paleontology and related fields.
The FUNdraiser is meant to be entertaining, educational, and to raise funds to help support the mission of the PRI Center for Paleontology. Trivia night will consist of six rounds of questions surrounding the TV show F·R·I·E·N·D·S and the Center's favorite subject, Paleontology. Teams will be made up of 2-6 players. Prizes will be awarded to the top teams!
