Bingos
One of our major fundraising activities is providing volunteers for Bingo events at the Bingo Palace in Northeast Calgary. Shifts are approximately 4.5 hours long and involve selling tickets, counting money and checking bingo victories. Each band student is required to provide volunteers to work 3 bingo events per band year. After the first three bingo events students will receive 25 credits in their fundraising account for each worker that they provide at a bingo. All workers must be at least 18 years old.
Listed below are the bingo dates for the 2009 - 2010 school year. To sign up for a Bingo please phone or E-mail Rob Gabbin at the number below. The appropriate Chairperson will then phone you to confirm if you are working that Bingo. All workers will be phoned 5-7 days in advance of the bingo date. Because of the popularity of this fundraiser, we cannot guarantee an available space at every bingo, we will do our best to distribute shifts evenly, however, if you are not called to confirm your shift at a bingo, please do not just "show up" at the hall. All bingo events are held at the Bingo Palace, 2600 35th Ave. N.E. The AM bingo events run from 11:00 AM to 4:00 PM, the “PM” bingo events run from 5:00 PM to 9:30 PM. Bingos are a great way to earn a lot of fundraising credits in a short amount of time. If you have any questions, please contact Rob Gabbin.
