I go here for their BINGO nights, not often but when I do, I am always greeted and have a splendid time.
The manager is always looking out for everyone. He is also the coach of the Marching Elite. One night, the team showed a performance and it got me hooked. I am thinking of enrolling my child soon.
I love how involved the staff are with their patrons, making sure everyone is taken care of etc.
Me, being a BINGO NOVICE, was stumped but with the assistance of the staff, I was able to figure out the difference between Quickies, Blowouts and Progressives and other terms.
The Bingo Caller, I believe his name is Burg/Byrd or something (sorry for spelling), he is hilarious. Not only does he a good job at being on time and precise and calling out the numbers clearly, but he puts in his 2 cents jokes here and there. You can tell he is a favorite with the patrons. Love that guy.
The young adults and kids that are walking around selling instants are awesome. They know their roles and they are good at calling out what type of instants they are selling. I've gone to other halls and you have to stop playing bingo, locate one of the instant sellers and ask them what they are selling...by the time you get your response, you have missed like 3 numbers. It is nice when the people selling instants walk around yelling what they re selling so that all I have to do is look up or raise my hand and they come to you. I shouldn't have to "find you", you should "find" me. :)
Going to this hall makes me feel secure and safe. They have guards around and it is well-lit in the parking lot. I have to say though, their parking lot is small when it gets close to full house. But the good news is that you can park at the Walgreens or Papa Johns etc.
I truly enjoy how involved they are with getting the patrons to be part of a community because they have hosted the Christmas Eve party, the New Years Eve party and all at a special price.
I will be coming back here again.
The only CON I see is that they do NOT have a separate non-smoking section (enclosed/purified air), so you are having to suffer through all of the heavy smokers and you walk out smelling like one. I have had to use my inhaler once or twice to get me to breathe better. This 2nd hand smoking is what led me to look for other halls, but unfortunately, other halls are not up to the hall's standards when it comes down to customer service and staff. For that reason alone, I keep coming back. I may end up coming in with a painter's mask or something.
They do have a cash-only concession stand for snacks. read more
