Bingo Procedure

Students should call bingo if they have all of the words or pictures covered diagonally, across a row, vertically in a column, or whatever pattern the host suggest. If a student claims bingo and is incorrect, they will be disqualified from the round.

For each of the three games, one eligible winner will receive a $50 eGift Card to Thrifty Specialty Produce & Meats, which will be delivered via their Titan student email.
