The Parker County Senior Center was the place to be on Thursday, Oct. 17 for Burgers and Bingo. The evening featured great food, fellowship and lots of fun and prizes, with all proceeds benefiting the Parker County Committee on Aging.

The event raised over $4,200, enough to cover two weeks of feeding seniors, the PCAA reported.
Cornerstone Caregiving was the food and drink sponsor, while The Coyote radio station sponsored bingo calling and the blackout prize of two tickets to see Rascal Flatts at Dickies Arena. Dave Cowley, Gloria Gilbert Barron and Brent Baker handled the number calling and prize announcements, with many community members providing gift cards for prizes.
