The St. Ann Knights of Columbus hosts a bingo open to the public on the first Wednesday of every month September through May in the St. Ann School cafeteria, 435 S. Sixth St., Emmaus.<\/p>\n
Doors open 6 p.m. and bingo games begin 7 p.m. Refreshments are provided and include a variety of homemade desserts, assorted sodas, coffee, tea and water.<\/p>\n
The ticket consists of 20 games including a progressive jackpot. There was no winner at the Feb. 4 bingo event so this money will be added to the jackpot March 4.<\/p>\n
Also, beginning in March, a full dinner is also provided and included in the cost.<\/p>\n
The St. Ann Knights of Columbus have been hosting the bingo fundraisers since 2007.<\/p>\n
Money raised is used to provide scholarships to eighth grade students going to Allentown Central Catholic as well as high school students attending college.<\/p>\n
A donation of $250 was also made to Special Olympics.<\/p>\n
In addition to the Knights\u2019 fundraiser, the St. Ann Women\u2019s Alliance will host its Spring Gift Card Bingo in the school gymnasium April 19 for individuals 16 years and older.<\/p>\n
