Helping to raise money for scholarships are bingo volunteers Barbara Horoski, Helene Dupre, Louyis Silverman, Mary Lou Silverman and Noreen Riois. Proceeds from the American Legion Auxiliary penny bingo provide Girls State and Lemon Bay High scholarships.
Volunteer Tom Moores job is to pick up baked goods donated by Publix for penny bingo. Players look forward to coffee and goodies at penny bingo games.
What can you do with a penny? Not much, you may think.
But don’t tell that to a small but mighty band of women who run Tuesday bingo at the Rotonda American Legion.
