Its totally amazing what extra time folks have on their hands ....How many times have people questioned your BINGO are the attendees going to an illegal game?? They filled in spot where the rocks were where the pelicans used to sit on, now only 5 or 10 pelicans hang out rather then the pat 100 or so. they were beautiful to see as I kayaked by them. 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ken with respect, selling drugs is also illegal...But, a few blocks from where you live and walk, on Donato Guerra any time of the day or night you can make a purchase but you being a man of the world and Ajijic resident probably were aware of this "industry"???

When teh cracks start to show teh developers will be long gone and we'll be left wif a big half sold eyesore blocking people's views. Just a thought. My dear NMM, how nice to know that you have "concern" for the quality and safety of the buyers. But since you have no responsibility, solution or involvement with the development don't worry, just sit back and enjoy your Golden Years. Please, every morning, look in your mirror and... repeat....The Serenity Prayer...." TO ACCEPT THE THINGS I CANNOT CHANGE, THE COURAGE TO CHANGE THE THINGS I CAN, AND THE WISDOM TO KNOW THE DIFFERENCE".......God Bless You 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Gambling is illegal for money, so is poker if played for money, BIngolago is played for prizes, no cash prizes. A licence is filed every year in Janaury, Yes every bingo in Mexico has been shut down in the past, they did not follow the rules. Some bingo players spent a night in jail Also we have on advisory board several important persons giving us guidance regulary, that we do do anything to break the law and stay legal. some of their relatives attended our school and got step up in life. Remember the casino that was around the corner from the movie theater in Ajijic, it was shut down several years ago and was post in Quadalajara reporter that about 77 gringos spent a night in jail, they did follow the rules. We have been been checked out during Covid, when we first started back up and did not get shut down. Please do not spead any false rumors that may hurt the disadvantaged kids at our school. Bingolago follows all the rules, maybe that why we have not grown very big. There is no pent up demand for people to play bingo. Being at El Sombrero restuarant at 1pm on wednesday where Carlos the owner cooks great food has helped. I have to spend over 17 hours a week putting it together and getting prizes. It a lot of work , but it for the disadvantaged kids we help and give them a set up in life, it worth the effort. If you would like to donate and help the kids, you can do itonline with credit card or debot card at globalgivng.com a IRS 501c3. https://www.globalgiving.org/projects/a-gift-of-an-education-will-change-a-generation-2/ 6 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
