BTSD NEWS
Each year, the Buddhist Temple of San Diego
stages various major fundraisers. All fundraising
events are important because the net income
helps fund Temple operations and an ever
increasing budget.

As the temple moves forward in 2012, the Board
of Directors encourages the Sangha and BTSD
friends to support the following major fundraising
events:








Individually supporting fundraisers, either
monetarily or as a volunteer, are a tremendous
boost to assure the success of each event. The
Temple looks forward to your participation!
The VFW and BTSD get together each month to
host a "BINGO NIGHT," where proceeds are split
between both organizations. Bingo is usually
held on the fourth Saturday of each month,
and each Bingo session runs from 6 to 9 p.m.
There is a $10 buy-in that includes 12 games of
Bingo, and ONE blackout game. Extra cards
may be purchased for $0.50 per sheet.

On the nights where no benefit dinner is
scheduled, the VFW offers yummy hot dogs and
chili dogs for just $1, making Bingo an
inexpensive "night out!"








**NO BINGO in DECEMBER.**

help our temple.
