Friday temperatures were cooler than what had been said the fi rst few days of the fair, and that may have brought out the large number of senior citizens, some with their younger counterparts in toe for a morning fi lled with fun and laughter at Senior Day Bingo. Bingo is provided by the Oasis Senior Center in Lincoln with the help of many sponsors. The Oasis Executive Director Krista Miller, and her staff most of the actual game portion to the morning; calling and verifying cards. Sponsors from various senior organizations that service Logan County set up tables with information and treats for seniors to pick up. And they bring all the prizes for the winners to choose from. This year Miller had all the sponsors come up on stage and the seniors greeted them with an enthusiastic welcome...after all they were the ones that made this event happen. Things moved along quickly so there was time to play several games and possibly win one of the many prizes that were supplied by the senior services organization sponsors. While bingo is an individual activity you can stay "anonymous" while playing in a large group. But make no mistake, adults and kids alike were very serious about winning. Every eye seemed glued to their own bingo card BUT many were helping make sure their neighbors didn't miss a chance to win. While watching adults demonstrate by deed, how to be kind and helpful, it reminded us that it is our responsibility to teach our kids how to win and lose gracefully. We can make a diff erence every day, even in small things. [Karen Castelein, Stephanie Hall]
