FORT LAUDERDALE, FL – The Daughters of Penelope (DOP) Narcissus Chapter 289 held their 4th Virtual Bingo game on February 12 to entertain the community and support their church, St. Demetrios Greek Orthodox Church in Ft. Lauderdale.

The Chapter said in a statement via email, “For those who did not join us what a great time you missed! Lots of laughs and new game challenges by our ‘Mona the Magnificent’ Bingo Caller. It was so nice to see our old friends and to have a few new players, too.”

The statement continued, “A Cupid’s Arrow game and a Diamond game each followed by a Coverall and five regular games, challenges indeed! We had 25 players including our ‘Secret Weapon’ AHEPA District 6 Secretary Chris Pappis, AHEPA Past Supreme Governor George Karatzia, DOP Citrus District 2 Lt. Governor Eftyhia ‘Effie’ Kirkiles, St. Demetrios Parish Council President George Georgakakis, and many other players.

“Thank you to everyone who joined in and had so much fun! All proceeds continue to be donated to St. Demetrios. The chapter invites everyone to join them on Friday, March 12, 7:30 PM via Zoom. There will be a Virtual St. Patrick’s Day theme with interesting challenges so be sure to join in.”
