It’s been a while since the Bluffton Parent Teacher Organization (PTO) has hosted bakery bingo–since 2017, according to Bluffton Icon reports. So when members recently met to make preparations for the upcoming January 21 Bakery Bingo event, only a handful of the 11 people present had experienced this Bluffton Schools tradition.
But make no mistake, the parent teacher organization is ready for plenty of bingo action. Some 60 bakery items were already volunteered, baskets have been promised for the basket raffle, and a menu of drinks, snacks and entrees was being finalized.
