Castle Pines Girl Scout Troop 65517 finished an afternoon of bingo singing the Girl Scout’s “Make New Friends” song to the residents at Legacy Village of Castle Pines. The troop spent the afternoon calling bingo and serving drinks to the members as they played. Some of the residents at Legacy Village were former leaders and scouts themselves, and they joined in with the singing.
Castle Pines Girl Scout Troop 65517 took the opportunity to make some friends and play a little bingo at Legacy Village of Castle Pines. The girls spent an afternoon with residents calling out letters and numbers, searching for a straight, layered cake, baseball diamond and even a blackout bingo.
The troop brought Valentine’s Day-themed prizes for the winners. Pictured above, Girl Scout Kendal McClarran helps one of the winning residents choose a prize.
“The Castle Pines community is full of good neighbors who enjoy connecting with one another. The time the girls spent with the residents of Legacy Village was a reflection of that community spirit,” said Kaylee Scott, troop co-leader. “It was such a joy to watch the interactions between neighbors and new friends that span generations.”
The girls assisted the players setting up their cards and entering each player’s name for a raffle drawing. The troop brought prizes for the winners and when a player called out “BINGO!” the winner could choose from a variety of Valentine’s Day-themed items. They filled glasses with water and helped wherever else they were needed.
