BNI Chapter Mixer… Bingo!
BNI Philippines held its first chapter mixer last November 16, 2007 in Jestine’s, a restaurant managed by Christina Gascon, Genesis chapter member. It was a fun-filled evening with bingo game, raffle draws and all night cocktails! The members had fun with the bingo activity. There were a lot of funny and witty remarks during the games. David Montecillo had the knack of being a bingo caller and Erick Kalugdan was great support in sorting the bingo chips. The members contributed gifts for the raffle and most of the attendees went home with a prize. Credit goes to Genesis chapter especially President Christopher Tan and his team for the drum up of the event, coordinating the venue, planning the menu, materials for the games. Thanks to the Harvesters: Deedee Espina for overseeing the bingo activity, selling the bingo cards and handing out the prizes; Edlynn Ng verified the winning bingo cards, listed the winners and prizes, and drawing the raffle winners.It was a successful event, and a “good brick laid for the foundation” so to speak. The first activity of its kind, it brought members of both chapters in one venue and this strengthens BNI ties. Cheers to a great initiative!
