SANDPOINT — Think you know Bonner County history? Well, you can put that knowledge to the test on Saturday during the “Protect Our Story” trivia night at the Sandpoint Organic Agriculture Center.
The event is hosted by Leadership Sandpoint, a Greater Sandpoint Chamber of Commerce-sponsored program, to support the Bonner County Historical Society and Museum. The three-hour family-friendly event kicks off at 4 p.m. and will feature live trivia, live music from Justyn Priest, food trucks and a silent auction.
“This is a chance to have some fun while supporting something that really matters to our community,” Jessica Cooper, a representative for Leadership Sandpoint, said in a press release. “We’re excited to bring people together around local history in a way that’s engaging, celebratory, and a little competitive.”
In addition to the trivia, the event will have exhibits for attendees to learn about and appreciate the county’s history. Leadership Sandpoint’s 2026 class selected BCHS as its fundraising project, the organization announced in January and is hosting the event as a part of that effort.
Tickets for the event are $15 and can be purchased at sandpointchamber.org/annual-events/local-history-trivia-night/.
