Our 'Burgers and Bingo Night Out" is back on Saturday, March 21 at 5 pm. We will be serving burgers with all the fixings for dinner followed by several rousing rounds of Bingo! This year Rose Marie has added a new twist to the game. She is asking each family to bring a wrapped present - the present is an nice item from your house that you no longer use (or never used) in good condition and you would like to re-home it! The winner of each game can either pick from the pile of unopened gifts or 'steal' one from a previous winner! Rose Marie will also have one grand prize supplied by the church for last game. If you plan to attend please sign up downstairs or contact Rose Marie.
