bingoWe had a full house at our first Bingo Night & General Assembly Meeting August 27. Lots of families braved the rain and came to test their luck at bingo Friday night. There were lots of happy winners and smiles as several teachers attempted to out eat Mr. Cluff in a pizza-eating contest! Many thanks to Catherine McLain for organizing this event and all our sponsors: First Watch, Beall's, Firestone, Tijuana Flats, Shear Perfection, Bonefish, Big Cat Rescue, MOSI, Punch and Xtreme Adventures! See the pictures here!
