Chair Lisa Ullsperger and Fundraising Director Nancy Catudal extend their thanks to everyone who made the 2026 Designer Bag Bingo fundraiser a great success.  Not even the monsoon rains that occurred on Monday evening could keep the bingo players away!  Thanks also to all the Women's Club members who volunteered to help, donated items for the raffle table, and generally provided support for the evening.

Rebecca Padgett served as the event's emcee and Kacie Harley modeled the handbags - thank you both for a great job.  Rebecca and Kacie are Rotarians with the Rotary Club of Green Cove Springs. 

A special thanks go to the sponsors who donated funds to support the event in 2026:  the Elks Lodge #1892 including David Miller, Rob Loryea, Paul Orvosh and Ed Weston; Gary Miller; Mike Boucher Roofing/Construction; Beyond Custom Flooring (Travis Wickam); Broadus-Raines Funeral Home; Virginia Hall; Hungry Howie's; Home Video Studio (Cheryl Kennedy);  Dream Vacations (Jenny Hartwig); Magnolia Home Services (John Cardinell); Bunco Babes of Magnolia Point; Princess Zoe and "WaWa" Eloise Burman; Pat's Nursery; Sonoma Management Group (Monty Murphy); Scott Baltes of Magnolia Point; and Retro Putt Mini Golf.   

Representatives from Challenge Enterprises were also present to collect discarded bingo paper to recycle and shred in conjunction with Shred-It. 

All proceeds will go to help the underserved in Green Cove Springs and Clay County, as well as providing scholarships to young women graduating from Clay High School.
