BINGO–Volunteers Needed Now |

Bingo is a year round fundraiser and we need your help! This is a busy time for everyone but the financial success of Bingo depends on parent volunteers. Several pull tab sellers are needed every Tuesday and Thursday – the bingo patrons want to give us their money by purchasing pull tabs! We ask that each family volunteer 12 times per year at Bingo. Please find a Tuesday or Thursday this month and come to the Bingo Hall in Keithshire Shopping Center at 6:00 pm. You will meet some great parents and support the band’s fundraising efforts. |
