Trivia: Test Your Olympic Knowledge

The Summer Olympics begin tomorrow, but how well do you know the Games? All this week, Patch will post trivia questions to test your knowledge.

 


It's Day 4 of the Patch Olympic Trivia Quiz, a chance for Verona-Cedar Grove Patch readers to test their knowledge and prepare for the Olympic Games from Great Britain.

As hundreds of world-class athletes prepare to compete in the 2012 Summer Olympic Games beginning tomorrow, Patch is celebrating the start of the games by posting Olympic trivia questions all this week.

Looking for a way to celebrate the Olympics locally? You can find local events for Olympic Fun Day on July 28 on the Let’s Move website, which has a page about how to set up your own local Olympics

Also check out our Directory and Events Calendar for listings of places where you can learn and participate in Olympic sports ranging from basketball to karate, gymnastics, swimming and more.

Check back with Verona-Cedar Grove Patch every day between now and Friday for a new quiz.

Verona-Cedar Grove Patch will post the answers beginning at 8:30 p.m. tonight.
