Ready for some Bingo? This kind feeds your hunger and is for a good cause.
Bluffton’s PTO’s annual bakery Bingo is Saturday, Jan. 30, and the PTO needs your assistance.

“PTO has received generous support from businesses in the past years for our raffle. We invite businesses to make contributions for this year’s raffle,” she said.
