Musician Sammy Blanchette headlines Singo Fundraiser for United Church of Ludlow Bell Restoration

LUDLOW, Vt. – Jane McGarry, who runs the popular Singo Bingo games at Off the Rails, Black Line Tavern (Magic Mountain), and other New England venues, is hosting a special Singo Night on Monday, June 24, at 7 p.m., to raise funds for the United Church of Ludlow’s “Ring Out Love” Capital Campaign. Ludlow musician Sammy Blanchette, aka Sammy B, will perform the songs live, adding a unique twist to a fun event that usually offers recorded music.

Singo is a musical variation of bingo that uses songs instead of numbers to fill playing cards. It’s fun for all ages, everybody sings along, and winners get prizes for each of three Singo rounds. Singo Cards at the fundraiser can be bought for a small fee, with every dollar raised going to the church’s “Ring Out Love” campaign. Snacks will be provided, and participants are encouraged to BYOB.

The United Church of Ludlow is trying to raise $50,000 to restore its historical bell. With the campaign theme “Ring Out Love,” the United Church hopes to not only repair the disintegrating supports on its venerable bell, but also to make upgrades to improve accessibility and to help neighbors in need.
