People from throughout the Green Lake County area and beyond will be coming out of hibernation for Polar Bear Bingo which is sure to make winter a little more "bear"-able. The game is scheduled for Saturday, January 29. Doors and concessions open at 5 p.m., card sales begin at 5:30 p.m. and games start at 6:30 p.m.

The night features 13 games, plus speedy bingo and a progressive black out final game with a jackpot of $1,257 plus half the night’s progressive sales. The jackpot is estimated to exceed $1,500! The night will also feature a 50/50 raffle, door prizes and plenty of family fun. We even have a giant stuffed polar bear to raffle off (we named him Snowball)!

This month’s game will be the first in which gameplay takes place in both the ballroom and Studio A. Calls will be made in the ballroom and live-streamed to Studio A. 

“Incorporating Studio A adds capacity for nearly 150 more players, so everyone can safely spread out and have plenty of room to enjoy the game,” said Phil Burkart, Town Square board member and bingo caller. 

Concessions will be available for purchase in the ballroom’s new Jury Room Bar, including $2 Sheboygan hot dogs, chips, beer and wine. Carry-ins are prohibited.
