About this Exploration: They come from up to 60 miles away every Monday night. Man woman, girl, and boy come to play bingo at American Legion Dexter D, Harbour Post 79. The multi-room building packs anywhere from 70 to 140 people, eyes glued to their long, thin Bingo sheets and hands clutching the ink daubers with which they mark a successfully called number. Then, a shout of exclamation as someone rings out "BINGO!" and moans of disappointment echo throughout. American Legion Bingo extends far beyond the fluorescent-lit rooms and shoulder-to-shoulder gatherings. The money raised benefits the community through various avenues and to various groups. The Boys Scouts, Girl Scouts, high school band, local domestic violence shelter, Communities in Schools, an annual youth summer baseball team, and others have all been recipients of the American Legion's funds. And this is the reputation Post 79 wants to keep, one of involvement and respect for the sake of community. Bingo takes place every Monday at 7 p.m. |
