Last Thursday, Feb. 19, the “Hillbilly Games” were held at the Idyllwild Library. The first event pitted two teams in a game of Idyllwild Jeopardy. Here, members of Team One — Barbara Hunt, Bud Hunt and Gina Genis — prepare to answer the first question, “Who was named homecoming queen the same year her brother, David, came home from the Air Force?” All the questions were based on archived copies of the Idyllwild Town Crier, available at the Idyllwild Library or online, from1949 through1956.

After Idyllwild’s Millionaire Acorns, the two hillbilly teams competed in Idyllwild Jeopardy at the library. Here, Team Two (from left) Richie Garcia, Kathy Gorzny and Michael Kellner, ponder the answer to “Jiggs and Maggie escaped from their cage and ran off. What was so unusual about these two being loose in the woods?“ Photos by Gallagher Goodland
