Altrusa Club of Ruidoso is hosting its second annual Vino Bingo. The event will take place at the outdoor pavillion of Sanctuary on the River on Sept. 6 from 5:30 to 8:30. Because the event is outdoors, a light jacket is suggested, Tickets are $20. There will be a door prize, cash prize and prizes for each game. A light meal will be provided and wine will be available for purchase.

Because of your generosity in supporting Altrusa’s fundraising events, we have given back over $17,000 to our country and our community in the last year alone. Some of our donations in time and money go to help support, Lincoln County Food Bank, The Nest, Head Start Literacy, Adult Literacy, scholarships for those returning to school to continue their higher education, Food for Kids Back Pack Program, and low-cost mammograms for those who, without this help, would not be able to be financially able to have a mammogram, and hosting an annual CYFD Christmas party for foster children and their families. A meal is provided and Santa gives each child a gift and a book. To purchase tickets to Vino Bingo, contact any Altusan, or Barbara Dickinson 336-7822 or Cindy Buzan 336-1214, Tickets may also be purchased the Ruidoso Valley Chamber of Commerce.
