Rotary Club of Polokwane 100 hosts bingo day

Complete with his top hat and bow tie John Dunlevey welcomed guests at the Bingo afternoon last Tuesday.

POLOKWANE – Complete with his top hat and bow tie John Dunlevey welcomed guests at the Bingo afternoon saying: “Ladies and gents, we are about to start…”

It was Tuesday afternoon and after Valentine’s Day the previous day, every invited guest from Our Home dressed in something red.

As the cards for the game were handed out, John explained the objective of the games. “Each card has 16 numbers between one and 40. You should get a number in each column to be announced the winner.”

As John called out the numbers, his helper Jolene Potgieter held the numbers up for those who had trouble hearing. Within only a few minutes Louise Joubert stood up, announcing herself as the first winner of the day.

    “I think it was a wonderful afternoon filled with laughter. It was nice to have people in a social environment enjoy themselves.”
