BINGO!
What fun! The camping club was sponsoring a BINGO night, complete with prizes.
Danny loved to go camping. He and his dad went once each month in his dad's pop-up camper. Ever since his dad and mom had gotten divorced, he missed his dad a lot. Going camping helped with that. Dad belonged to a great group of people who enjoyed camping together. They went on the third Friday of each month. Each month, the club sponsored some activity. This month would be BINGO!
First, Danny and his dad and all the club members gathered at the picnic shelter for a potluck supper. The theme tonight was international food. After scarfing down lasagna, Chinese noodles, taco pie, and a piece of German chocolate cake, Danny was ready to play!
Mrs. Butler, who was the one who always organized the BINGO game, set out some wrapped prizes. Her son passed out BINGO cards to everyone.
"I will tell you what each game will be," Mrs. Butler announced. "At the end of the game, I'll draw a point amount out of a cup, and the winning family will receive that many points. At the end of all the games, the families with the top three highest number of points will receive prizes."
Mrs. Butler had made sure the game would be fair by having each family play four cards regardless of the number of the people in the family.
"The first game will be a regular BINGO, which means any five squares in a row, column, or diagonally. Let's begin."
Mrs. Butler called out a number and a letter, and Danny's dad helped him find whether that number was on their cards.
"B-4," Mrs. Butler called.
"Dad, we have that one!" Danny whispered excitedly. They placed a clear plastic game piece on the card.
"I-17," Mrs. Butler called. Danny and his dad did not have that one.
