Our Bingo Application Is Progressing

Almost a year ago Youth In The Arts applied to the Malden City Council for a permit to operate a bingo game at the Malden VFW Hall in Malden.

The Licensing Committee of the Council held a hearing on our application that went very well with almost all members voicing support for the organization.

Committee Chairman Neal Anderson tabled the hearing after requesting President John Preziosa to return with the future financial plans of the organization to support the request. The council has not yet voted on the request.

Since that meeting a new council took office on January 1st. The Bingo request has again been referred to the License Committee with two new members. They will take up the matter on March 9th at 6:00 PM in the council chamber on the second floor of city hall.

The resumption of the bingo game is a major part of the corps' financial planning. So if you live in the Malden area and you can make it that night it will be a big help if you show up at that meeting to support our request.
