Bar Bingo and Meat Raffle Planning for 2020 during Covid-19 restrictions

The Sauk River Chain of Lakes (SRCL) Association conducts Gambling Operations at Shady’s Long Shots at 17467 Fairway Circle, Cold Spring, MN 56320. The goal of this plan is to start conducting Bar Bingo on Wednesday nights and Meat Raffle on Friday nights starting October 28, 2020. The ultimate goal is to provide a safe environment for the customers, staff, and volunteers during the Bar Bingo and Meat Raffle activities.

Bar Bingo: Wednesday nights

• Volunteers: 2
• Only packets will be sold prior to the start of Bar Bingo. No individual sales between games. Volunteers will NOT go around the bar to sell individual Bingo sheets.
• The person with Bingo will come up to the front table to verify the card and receive winnings.
• Dobbers will still be provided by SRCL but will be collected and cleaned after each game night.
• Dobbers will be available for sale to customers for $1.
• The regular bingo payouts will be the same percentage as last year. These payouts can be adjusted as patron volumes change.

Meat Raffle: Friday nights

• Volunteers: 2
• Raffle tickets will be purchased at the front table. Volunteers will NOT go around the bar to sell tickets.
• There will be two rounds of five games in which patrons can purchase raffle tickets at the front table. Each game will have color-coded tickets to align with the number of the game.
• The person with the winning ticket will come up to the front table to verify the ticket and receive a prize.
