Quiz Answer Key and Fun Facts
1. Film Camp was a way for parents to get cheap babysitting.

Answer: True

Greg thought it would be for those who were serious about movies. However, it was annoying having to deal with noisy kids. In addition, it took Greg time to adjust to the light after being in a dark cinema for half an hour.
2. Why did Grandpa move out of Leisure Towers?

Answer: They raised the rent; thus, he couldn't afford to live there anymore

Dad disapproved of this, but Mom's grandparents lived with her as a child, thus believing in the family as a community.
3. All of the following is true about the Old-Timey Ice Cream Parlour EXCEPT which?

Answer: The ice cream in the "Feeding Trough" is extremely tasty

There is no mention about the ice cream in the "Feeding Trough", which is 40 scoops of ice cream mixed into one tray, being tasty. When the ice cream gets mixed together, it turns into grey slop. (If you look at the picture he drew, he seemed uninterested in eating the ice cream.) This was part of what ruined Greg's experience with ice cream.
4. Rodrick replaced the previous person who worked as Old-Timey Tobias. Why did the previous person who donned the Tobias costume get fired?

Answer: He was seen without his costume head on

Evidently, being seen without a costume head on is a huge no-no. (A diagram shows a kid being scared at a person without his costume head on.)
5. Why did Greg pick the top bunk bed?

Answer: He was worried that Julian Trimble would wet the bed

He stated that he couldn't risk Julian wetting the bed if Greg were underneath. Unfortunately for Greg, Mr. Jefferson got the bottom bunk.
6. How did Melinda Henson make herself sick?

Answer: She ate three servings of stew

Many students got homesick and wanted to back home; the only reason to be sent back was for a "medical reason." Julian Trimble ingested deodorant, which led to chaperones confiscating deodorant. Nevertheless, he made a full recovery after being picked up.
7. Why did the staff think that Mr. Nuzzi could handle dealing with more than one troublemaker in his group?

Answer: He works as a prison guard

The students were likely grouped so that there'd be no more than one troublemaker per group. Mr. Nuzzi's group had more than one troublemaker.
8. Which bag did Greg's group snatch in a raid on a girls' cabin?

Answer: Mrs. Graziano's bag

Mrs. Graziano found out that Greg's group was responsible for the raid after finding Emilio Mendoza stumbling in the dark, groping a tree (his glasses broke, meaning he couldn't see properly).
9. Why did Greg want his mother to be a volunteer chaperone for the trip to Hardscrabble Farms?

Answer: She could feed inside information from the girls' side of camp

She had actually volunteered as a last-minute chaperone. Unfortunately, she wasn't comfortable leaving Manny with Rodrick and Grandpa.
10. When Rowley threw "weeds" in the fire, only to smother it, what did he actually throw in?

Answer: Poison ivy

Rowley got spots from touching the ivy, and his father had trouble breathing after inhaling the fumes. Thus, they were both dismissed from camp. Remember that rose and holly leaves are not poisonous.
