Event Description

BINGO! That is right, we are looking for volunteers from NJYP and Team Charity to come out and play Bingo with the seniors of Acorn Glen. All volunteers will be paired up with a senior during a few rounds of Bingo. You will chat with them while helping them to play (and win) Bingo. After the group may go out for a late lunch at nearby Alfonso's so please bring some cash!

What to Bring:
Please bring a small prize that can be given to the Bingo winners. For instance you can re-gift something you received over the holidays or bring in a book on your bookshelf that is in new condition. The 5-Below stores also will have great small prizes.

RSVP (to the right) and we will let you know when tix are almost gone, when prices are going up, if there are any changes, etc.

Deposits:
Because they are relying on us we are asking that all volunteers put down a FULLY REFUNDABLE DEPOSIT of $9.09. The $9.09 will be returned to all who attend the event. Cancellations will be accepted (and deposits refunded) up until noon on the day before.

Post-Event Lunch (optional):
Alfonso's Pizzeria & Restaurant
1212 Rte-206, Princeton, NJ
(609) 924-8351‎

Directions/Parking:

When you enter the driveway you can go to the right and park in the parking lot. You can enter through the solarium (the room with all the windows).

How to Find the Group:
After parking enter through the solarium (the room with all the windows). Go down the stairs and sign in with the concierge. She will then show you to the Activities Room.

Comment by Susan on January 16, 2010 at 1:18pm: Sorry I was not able to go after all. I'd like to see more volunteering opportunities like this, though.

Comment by Susan on January 6, 2010 at 4:56pm: I always feel so bad for people who are in nursing/senior homes who don't get a lot of visitors. Would love to do this, just need to double check the date

Comment by Susan on January 5, 2010 at 4:06pm: My first job was as an activities assistant at a nursing home; I started out volunteering for my Confirmation project in 8th grade and continued until they hired me when I was old enough a couple of years later. There was a lot of Bingo involved! It was so much fun. I'd like to do this, I just need to double-check the date

Comment by Laura Labriola on January 5, 2010 at 3:34pm: I'll be in Phoenix

Comment by Jennifer L. Campbell on January 1, 2010 at 6:11pm: Wish that I could do this. I've been looking for volunteer opportunities in our area. But, I've got a bridal shower that afternoon :(
