Safe Bingo Debuts For Greer Seniors Through SOAR

From the City of Greer:

"During these challenging times we've had to get creative on the programming side of things, obviously, especially for our seniors," said Justin Miller, Recreation Supervisor for the City of Greer.

On September 24 at Victor Park, that meant broadcasting Bingo games over a low-power FM transmitter that allowed seniors to remain in their vehicles and play along by listing to their car radios. Participants are part of the City of Greer's Seniors Out and Around (SOAR) group that gathers regularly for social activities.

Players who scored Bingo honked their horns and flashed their lights in celebration and collected prizes once their cards were checked.
