Held at 6 p.m. on Saturday, Apr. 2 at Newport Beach Golf Course, Spring Flingo costs just $25 per person and includes a no-host cocktail reception, Mexican food buffet, bingo games orchestrated by a fun host, a Texas Hold ‘Em-style poker tournament, an extensive silent auction baskets and several opportunity drawings.
Here's more information about Spring Flingo:
Bingo, which will be held from 7:30-9 p.m., includes a hilarious host, entertainment for everyone and prizes for the winner. 10 cards for $40.
Texas Hold ‘Em Poker has limited seating, starts at 7 p.m. and features first, second and third place prizes. $100 buy-in donation.
The first prize in the Spring Flingo Opportunity Drawing is a week at a flat on the West Coast of Ireland in the city of Kilkee. The second prize is an Apple iPad2 and the third prize is a year’s worth of pizza from Original Pizza in Costa Mesa. Tickets costs $10 each or three for $20.
