We invite you to join us in our efforts to
enhance the well-being of those within the Berkshire community.  Your kind and

Music Bingo is BACK!

Remember what a rockin’ good time we had at Music Bingo pre-covid?  Well… IT’S BACK!  For those who attended, you know you’ll want to register right away, for those who missed the last one, here’s your chance to get in on the fun!

June 2, 2022, 6:00 p.m.
Bousquet Ski Lodge
101 Dan Fox Drive, Pittsfield

Music Bingo is a fun filled and fast paced take on traditional bingo! Dancing in your seat, with a chance to win lots of money and have fun while doing it. We are bringing back our DJ from our last event and players will be given 2 bingo cards… but traditional bingo numbers have been replaced with song names, music titles or both! Our DJ plays 10-15-second clips of music and you mark off spots on your bingo card. Each game has 3 rounds – with winners awarded prizes at the end of each game! The goal – get your groove on, get bingo and have FUN raising funds for a great cause.

$25 per person includes 2 bingo cards. The fun kicks off on Thursday June 2nd at 6 p.m., in the newly built Bousquet Ski Lodge, 101 Dan Fox Drive in Pittsfield. Food and drinks available for purchase. Please, sign up today!

Oh, yea…and we’re raffling off a house of cash, worth $1000.

About that house of cash… the roof will be tiled with business cards and the winner will take them home.  This event is open to the public, that’s a lot of advertising power.  In addition to attending the event, please support the cause by sponsoring a ‘roof tile’.  What better marketing can you get for a mere $25?

We also have event sponsorship opportunities:

Diamond $250
Platinum $100
Gold $50
(get the music theme??)

All funds raised will support the Board’s Charitable Housing Fund, used to grant monies to Berkshire County residents suffering housing related tragedy (donations to fire victims, etc.).
