Bingo is back! Come on down on Sunday afternoons at 1 p.m. Bring your family, friends and neighbors! We welcome all new players as well as everyone who’s played in the past. Don’t be a Bongo, come and play Bingo! The blackout jackpot is currently at $125!

PEOPLE HELPING PEOPLE STARTS AT HOME

Welcome to the new “Volunteer Column,” suggested by Tom Smith, who recently volunteered his time and skills. As Tom says, “Volunteers make this club great”! Here’s a big THANKS to this month’s volunteers: Dick Gill for donating $70 for the linoleum to fix the kitchen floor, to Don Gisle for repairing the dance floor, and to Tom Smith himself for donating raw materials and his labor and time to replace the kitchen floor. Way to go guys!

Are you looking for a volunteer opportunity? Your helping hands would be appreciated in the kitchen during all Seahawks games. If you’re interested, let the bartender know and he or she will submit your name to the trustees. Kitchen volunteers must be approved by the trustees.

Or, how about being a Bingo caller? It’s fun and you can be creative. Just ask Buzz! Let Vi Goessman know at 425-889-0130.

If YOU know of someone who has volunteered his or her time and talents to help the club, contact Cece at jimncece@yahoo.com or put the information in the newsletter box.
