BINGO for Beans and Babies is being held every Thursday from 6-9 pm until October 1st at Bite me! Beach Club. For reservations call (322) 223-1521, ext 234.
Thursday, September 17 marked the second to last BINGO for Beans and Babies at Bite me! Beach Club. 59 people showed up to play, raising $13,287 pesos for Pasitos de Luz and surpassing our original goal of $100,000 pesos - and we still have one more BINGO night, plus the closing party to go!

This week's guest caller was Paul Crist from Hotel Mercurio. Though nervous at first, Paul quickly warmed to the task and even requested another guest spot in the future. ‘Muchas Gracias Paul!

There were many great prizes up for grabs, and this week’s lucky winners were:

• Game 1: Bill Kelly & Don Hughes

• Game 2: Dennis Smith

• Game 3: Toby Spang

• Game 4: Joyce Fidler

• Game 5: Anna Reisman

• Game 6: Margaret Souder

• Game 7: Marcia Escontria

• Game 8: Juan Carlos Garcia

The 50/50 raffle prize was won by none other than Grant Hunermund of Bite me! Beach Club. Grant donated the $1705 pesos to Pasitos de Luz. Jerry Wilson won one of the door prizes, a gift basket donated by regular bingo-ers Yogi and Cheryl.

Charlotte Semple took home a gift basket donated by Nina Goodhope of La Bodega de Nina, and Don Hughes won a 1 year full page ad on BanderasNews.com, which he donated to Bite me! Beach Club.

As we all know PVRPV – Puerto Vallarta Vacations – has wrapped up their incredibly successful Summer Food Drive. They are thrilled that through many sources and your generous donations at our weekly Bingo, the food drive was able to do so much for so many. That being said however, below is a wish list from Pasitos De Luz.



These items are needed to ensure the health and welfare of the children they serve. Anyone who brings any of these items to BINGO will receive a free BINGO card. How's that for a deal, folks?



BINGO for Beans and Babies will continue every Thursday night until October 1 at Bite me! Beach Club, located on Los Muertos Beach directly south of the Tropicana Hotel. For Reservations, call 223-1521 ext. 234. If you haven't been yet, Click HERE to see what you've been missing.
