Operative words
We urge you to take proactive steps like washing down tables, chairs, and electronic bingo card monitoring devices frequently, encouraging volunteers to wash their hands, and having hand sanitizer available throughout the bingo hall for patron use.... Please understand these are just recommendations, and we believe they are best practices. If your organization elects to cancel bingo for more than two weeks, due to this issue or any other reason, please notify our office of the closure immediately.
