 | Bingo Czar is still working up numbers, but the string of bingo crews that worked a total of sixteen hours at the Middleton Good Neighbor Festival did a great time, made some new Rotary friends, and raised a bucket of money. Details to come. But here’s a picture of our Prez Dawn Frank looking all bingoish. |
BREAKING REPORT FROM MATT: Thanks to all of our club members and friends who made bingo a smashing success at the Middleton Good Neighbor Fest. As a fundraiser, this was a winner--$2,025 net-net-net. As an opportunity for fellowship, it was even better—33 club members participated along with family and friends. As a chance to showcase our club in Middleton, it worked. Our club was 20+ years removed from bingo and Good Neighbor Festival hasn’t had bingo in years. We heard those festival patrons wanted it back, but it was uncharted waters for us. I am proud to say that everyone involved brought a positive attitude and made the event fun—thanks! Our club should plan to return to GNF next year and plan to do better. To make that happen we must gather all of your feedback and look for ways to improve our operation and thereby results. I will be at this Friday’s meeting, September 6, at 11:45 and will stay later to hear your ideas for improvement. You are also welcome to send me ideas at matthewloch26@gmail.com. | |
