What's Happening
United Way's VIP BINGO is back, set for June 24
|
One of United Way of Jasper County's most popular fundraising events is back for 2021.
UWJC's VIP Bingo - sponsored by Eye Care Center of Newton, Kinetic Edge, Newton Clinic and Wallace Family Funeral Home - will be on June 24. Doors open at 5:30 p.m. and bingo will begin around 6:30 p.m. and will take place at Alta House Event Center, 1600 E. 36th St. S. The event was postponed in 2020 due to the pandemic but organizers are excited the fundraiser is slated for later this summer at its new location. "2020 was a tough year. Not only did we cancel the event due to the pandemic but our original site was damaged by the derecho in August and is no longer available," said Jessica Lowe Vokes, UWJC Executive Director. "We definitely had challenges rescheduling this popular night but we think people are really going to enjoy the new location at Alta House because it is beautiful, tons of close parking and is a perfect backdrop foa fun night out" Along with the new venue, Lowe Vokes said the event will offer a larger variety of prizes but will still feature fan favorite name brand purses. "I know this is an event that a lot of women look forward to but I would encourage anyone who likes bingo, nice prizes and helping make a difference grab a ticket," Lowe Vokes said, noting there will be some prizes guys would really like too. |
Tickets are $40 each and can be purchased at UWJC office or online for $42 at https://secure.qgiv.com/for/uwojc/event/830945
Admission includes Snacks, drinks and bingo packets. Space is very limited and tickets are selling fast. |
