Huge thank you to our Clay Capital Heritage Center’s Purse Bingo Committee! A couple members of the committee dropped off over $5000 in funds raised from the Clay Museum’s first purse bingo event hosted on May 6th. Thank you to all who donated purses, money, and time to make this event possible and to the Uhrichsville Elks for the venue space.

We look forward to an even bigger and better next purse bingo event!
