Fairy Tale Bingo drew 650 guests dressed as their favorite fairy tale characters for a night of fun at the Hyatt Regency in downtown Minneapolis.
After being invited to take the Bingo A-GoGo pledge, guests were treated to a musical selection from the Twin Cities Gay Men's Chorus. Then, it was time for a bingo competition hosted by Miss Richfield 1981.
Since it was founded in 2002, Bingo A-GoGo has split the funds it raises between two Twin Cities nonprofits, Park House and the Twin Cities Gay Men's Chorus.
