PHILIPSBURG – The Lion Wally Havertong Christmas Bingo Spectacular will be held on Saturday, December 3, at the Festival Village at 8:00pm sharp.
This annual event, which is one of the club’s most loved and well attended signature projects, helps to generate funding to cover community projects throughout the Lionistic year including, but not limited to: The Nelson van de Linden Senior Citizens Party, Lion Rudy Hoeve Health & Wellness Fair, Christmas Feeding Program, Foster Homes Movie Day and Student Excellence Awards among many others.
“The club is taking all the necessary steps to ensure that this year’s Lions Christmas Bingo is as spectacular as the previous years have been and more. The club headed by its President Lion Davey Woods and aided by the Fundraising Committee invites one and all to purchase their tickets, which are available from any St. Maarten Lions Club member. Price per ticket has remained at US $10 or NAf. 20 and can also be obtained at the Lion’s Den in Sucker Garden or by calling: 542-4910 or 520-1053 or by emailing dailyboard@sxmlions.org.”
“We also remain thankful to the many businesses around the island that have remained committed to this huge event and encourage them to partake once more as we finalize preparations for the Lion Wally Havertong Christmas Bingo Spectacular on December 3. It will remain an activity that the entire family can enjoy. We also ask that businesses on the island remain a partner by donating gift vouchers, purchasing of tickets for their employees and sponsoring of overloaded Christmas baskets that the public can enjoy during the holiday period.
It is an exciting and rewarding activity for St. Maarten Lions Club and we know that above all that it is for worthy causes while at the same time brings businesses and the community at large together for one common cause – a call to service towards enhancing our St. Maarten Community,” Club President Woods stated.
