Trivia Contest – February 17, 2012
The winner of last weeks trivia contest is Elizabeth Pasquarello of Phoenixville, PA whose name was randomly selected from the 21 who responded correctly.
Last Week’s Question: Name a first lady or former first lady who is godmother to a cruise ship or ocean liner and name that cruise ship or ocean liner.
Which former first lady was a godmother?
Correct Responses: Of the 21 responses we received, most gave the answer that we had in mind:
– Rosalynn Carter was godmother of the MS Sovereign of the Seas. In her role as godmother, Rosalynn ceremoniously “launched” or christened the ship by breaking a bottle of champagne on it’s bow.
We were delighted to receive two additional answers which were also correct and these were included in the random drawing as well!
– Eleanor Roosevelt was sponsor of the SS America
– Yvonne de Gaull was godmother of the SS France (later to become the SS Norway)
