Description

This our largest fundraiser of the year.  All money raised goes back into the community in the form of equipment, supplies & resources for our volunteer fire fighters.  In addition, money will also be used in the reconstruction cost of our fire house that incurred substantial damage as a result of the remnants of Hurricane Ida in September.  This will be the first "in house" fundraiser since the hurricance because no parts of the fire house were untouched by the 2 feet of water that entered and it had to be completely renovated.  We are expecting another sell out of 200 participants.  Along w/ 24 games of bingo, are players also participate in a large tricky tray which is what we are seeking donations for.  We are looking for any type of promotional item or gift card to be used as a prize in the tricky tray.  We have received in the past concert tickets, gift cards, skydiving trips and much more.  This bingo is very popular as our players not only come from the local area but from New Jersey, Delaware, Lancaster area, Poconos, Philadelphia and Lehigh Valley.  The event will be held on Sunday, May 15th at 1 pm at Sellersville Fire Department, 2 N Main St., Sellersville, PA.  All donations will need to be received by 5/10 in order for us to get sponsor names and contact information in the program given to each participant.  Thank you for your consideration in helping us reach our fundraising goal!
