What a tremendous opening night for Charity Bingo at Nacho Daddy! A good time was had by all and over $13,000 pesos were raised for Pasitos de Luz. (photos by Sara Hepting, PVScene.com)
What a tremendous opening night for Charity Bingo! Residents and tourists alike came out to support the very worthy Pasitos de Luz organization and enjoy themselves. We counted over 100 people attending and partaking in the fun.

We raised over $13,000 pesos and even received some additional donations off the Pasitos de Luz Wish List.

We had a ton of people who got there early and were raring to go, which got Tim Longpre of PVRPV up selling bingo cards right off the bat. We played a full 8 games of bingo with David Lansley from Gay Guide Vallarta calling out the numbers.

And thanks to our 50/50 chica, Carol from Xocodiva, we raised $2250 pesos for the 50/50 draw won by Dee's Coffee's own, Dee Rindt.

Yolanda from Pasitos de Luz gave a little speech at the break to inform everyone what exactly this non-profit organization is all about and how much the children and families of Pasitos de Luz appreciate the support. A special thanks to Isel Celis for the translation assist.

The delicious and delectable La Bodega de Nina Gift Basket that was so admired was given out as the Black Out Bingo final game prize of the evening and was won by Pamela Thompson of Healthcare Resources Puerto Vallarta.

The drinks kept pouring and the food kept coming out keeping the amazing crew at Nacho Daddy hopping all night long. Kudos to them for raising to the occasion and providing great service to the unexpected full house.
