Bingo enthusiasts will be heading to Bosca’s Burger Bar this Sunday for the first game back since Covid, with all funds going towards the Far North Queensland Foundation.
Mareeba Friends of the Hospital Foundation president Tom Braes paid tribute to the anonymous couple who donated a new calling machine for the fundraising initiative.
“Thanks also to the Mareeba Gladiators, which has donated a large number of books of bingo tickets,” he said.
“The Mareeba Friends are excited about this fundraising initiative with all funds raised to support the Mareeba Hospital.”
Bosca’s Burger Bar will provide a secure room for the Bingo games to be held at no cost to the Mareeba Friends of the Hospital Foundation.
Bingo will be held on Sunday 25 June at Bosca’s Burger Bar, Byrnes Street, Mareeba (former RSL building) from 9am - 12pm. Small meals will be available for purchase from the burger bar.
