Bingo, Bites and Big Wins
By Patrick Ford Editor

Football season fun meets classic bingo excitement as the Okmulgee Service League gears up for its annual fundraiser, Bingo Bowl Blitz, set for Saturday, Feb. 7, at the Okmulgee Community Center.

Running from 12:303:30 p.m., the Super Bowl-themed afternoon promises a lively mix of bingo games, great food, drinks and plenty of chances to win – all while supporting meaningful causes right here in Okmulgee.

The event will be held at the Okmulgee Community Center, 1201 W. 7th Street, and tickets are on sale now. General admission tickets are $35 through Jan. 15 and $40 after, while VIP Game Day tickets are $55 through Jan. 15 and $60 after. VIP tickets include an Unlimited Drink Card, making it the perfect option for those looking to enjoy the full game-day experience.

All tickets include bingo play along with a game-day style snack spread, giving players plenty to munch on while marking their cards. Beer, wine and seltzers will be available for purchase, and guests may also add an Unlimited Drink Card for $20, available both in advance and at the door.

The “Bingo Bowl Blitz” offers more than just bragging rights. Attendees can look forward to amazing bingo prizes, raffle giveaways and a variety of silent auction baskets, adding even more excitement throughout the afternoon.

Beyond the fun, the heart of the event lies in its mission. A portion of the proceeds will support local nonprofit organizations and scholarships, helping local students and strengthening the Okmulgee community in meaningful ways.

Organizers encourage residents to grab their tickets early, invite friends and come ready for an afternoon filled with bingo, bites, drinks and Super Bowl-inspired fun. Those interested in sponsorship opportunities or reserving a table are encouraged to contact any Okmulgee Service League member or reach out directly for more details.

With friendly competition, festive flair, and a great cause, Bingo Bowl Blitz is shaping up to be a can’t-miss community event this winter.
