Defending Bingo for Seniors in Belmont!

Defending Bingo for Seniors at the Twin Pines Senior & Community Center in Belmont.

Bingo every first and third Friday at 1:00pm is available at the Twin Pines Senior & Community Center at 20 Twin Pines Lane in Belmont. Many make jokes about Seniors playing Bingo. Well, you can make all the jokes that you want about Seniors playing Bingo but the fact is it promotes socialization among them. Socialization is the key ingredient for happiness in best quality of life practices for Seniors. The comradery between the 80 to 100 Seniors that join in the fun is exceptional. Bingo promotes companionship to many that are living alone. Don't fight 'em, join 'em! You might even when a prize! (You must be at least 18 years of age to play.)
