The Quiz Bowl Club at Rock Valley College (in Rockford, Illinois) began in Spring 2007. Even though RVC is noted for being a community college in a not-so-academic town, it was somehow able to attend the 2007 Elvis tournament at UW-Madison and host The Decemberist in 2007 for area high school teams. While the club officially folded in 2008, the college still hosts The Decemberist through Phi Theta Kappa.
College Tournaments
Brad Fischer, Samantha Kinn, and Susie Smith attended UW-Madison's Elvis tournament, going 0-11 with no close matches against all manner of established teams. Brad's 11th place finish individually pretty much proves that individual stats mean nothing.
High School Tournaments
RVC began The Decemberist on December 1st, 2007, and the second incarnation took place December 6th, 2008.
