Legendary Bingo

Wednesday, July 16, 2025

This is not your grandma’s bingo! Our Drag Queen Hostess will call 10 bingo games in a lively, sometimes saucy, but always fun manner. We give prizes to each winner and have a few live auction items. This event is not recommended for children, though the funds raised will support our free community outreach and educational programs that bring children of all abilities together through play. Don’t miss this fun event! It’s a great date night or Girls’ Night Out!
