Hello Bingo Buds! at our Board meeting last Saturday we discussed the future of our bingo program and made some decisions and changes. We do hope that you will all realize that these changes were made as we all felt they would benefit our Bingo program.

As of this month, I'm inviting all of you to join me again in my home for a fun filled evening of fun, fundraising and Chapter friendship. I'm making a few minor changes to how it was done in my home in the past in hopes that it will encourage more people to participate.

First of all, the hours of bingo. We will start serving dinner at 5:00 PM, bingo will start promptly at 6:00, a break at 7:00 and we'll finish no later than 9:00. Moving our start time to later than we had it before should permit working folks to get from work to bingo by 6:00.

One other change. I'd like for anyone that plans to attend bingo to contact me either by email or phone no later than Thursday afternoon at 5:00 PM to let me know of you plans to attend. My space is a bit more limited at this house and I want to make sure I can accommodate the number of players. Also, since I will be preparing dinners again, it will give me an idea of how much food to buy and cook which should prevent us from buying too much and should result in a greater amount of money raised throughout the night.

For those of you that have not attended bingo in my home before, this is how it works. You pay a $5.00 buy-in which gives you one bingo card. You may purchase additional cards at $1.00 per card. When you buy-in you have the option to pay an additional $5.00 for dinner. Dinners usually include a small dinner plus one drink of your choice. You may purchase additional drink tokens, $1 each or a bag of 6 for $5.00. These drink tokens may be used to buy additional drinks throughout the evening.

Our dinners usually consist of such dinner items as pizza, burritos, hotdogs and chili, hamburgers, sandwiches and sometimes in the spring we do a salad bar. They are very imformal meals that are good but quick to serve with very little mess involved.

Since I took back the bingo program in January, I have absolutely no bingo prizes. So, we're starting from scratch and I'm depending on all of you to help me with prizes.

Michael and I are very excited about having all of you back in our home again. We had such great times in the past.

Be sure to let me hear from you by Thursday afternoon and don't forget the bingo prizes.

Your friend, Elena Thomason

Hi, you all missed a heck of a good time last Friday night. Bingo was held at my home and we had burritoes with rice, fruit and chips and salsa for dinner with birthday cake for dessert. We had about 15 players out with us.

Our next bingo will be Friday April 4th. Please put it on your calendar and plan to join us. It truly is fun!!

Your friend, Elena
