Merry Christmas and Happy New Year from Daughters of Penelope Narcissus Chapter 289 in Ft. Lauderdale, FL!! Our Christmas Bingo was a success with 33 attendees held on Friday, December 11, 2020.
It was a Christmas theme, some of our players with unique holiday hats and attire! We played 8 bingo games including 3 regular games, 3 Wise Men, a Star, a Manger and 2 coveralls. Christmas music playing in the background too! Gift cards were won from Outback, Amazon, Target, Panera, McDonald’s and Starbucks. Fun for everyone! Our fabulous Bingo Caller Mona Monezis Kapakos made the game fun! You are the best!

We have donated over $1,300 from the Bingo games to St. Demetrios. A great way to help the church, have fun and make new friends. Not only members of our community, but friends we have locally and from New York and New Jersey!!
