Bingo is one of our biggest fundraisers here at Central. It's also
one the the easiest and fastest ways to make your trip money. Bingo is held every saturday at Bingo Planet South
on 10th street next to the old Pizza Blast, across from McDonalds and KFC. We hold 3 BINGO sessions every saturday (4pm, 7:30
pm, and 10:30 pm). Everyone must show up an hour in advance for each session in order to get your things together to be ready
to work. There is also a small selection on jobs you can do. >>
Working the Floor: When
you are told you are going to be "working the floor", this means that you will be selling specials. Specials include
Progressive, Double Action and Specials. Progressive are our best selling special because Progressive is the jackpot. Double
Action is a more challenging Bingo sheet that most people enjoy playing. And specials are simply repeats of pages in your
packet.
Pickle Worker: Pickles
(pull-tabs) are also one of our best sellers at Bingo. When working Pickles, your
main goal is to please the customers. Many people will make odd requests as to where they would like you to grab the pickles
from... the customer is number one, respect their wishes with a smile on your face.
Caller: Being
a caller may be one of the EASIEST jobs for bingo. We've all seen the shows where someone sits on a bench and spins the balls
only to stop after 5 minutes, pull a ball out... "N 32, 32 under the N"... and spin the balls yet another 5 minutes. Well,
we're not like that. To become a caller you MUST be trained with the machine. It's a bit difficult at first, but after awhile
it's one of the easiest and fun things to do. But, being a caller also requires good public speaking skills as you will be
in front of about 100 ppl or more everynight, so keep that in mind.
**ITEMS IN RED MUST BE DONE BY AN ADULT!!! NO EXCEPTIONS.
THESE REQUIRE LARGE AMOUNTS OF MONEY HANDLING AND PAPER WORK!!!
Pickle Manager: To become a pickle manager you must be trained. Pickle managers handle large amounts of money at once
and are also responsible for all the pickle workers!
