Fourth annual ‘Brews & Bingo’ United Way fundraiser to be held Aug. 30

Tyranena Brewing Company will be hosting a “Brews & Bingo” fundraiser to benefit the United Way of Jefferson & North Walworth Counties, the nonprofit organization has announced. 

“We’re really excited to be hosting our fourth year of bingo during this great fundraising event with Tyranena. We’ve had such successful bingo nights the past three years, so we’re really hoping for strong, continued support this year,” United Way Executive Director Megan Hartwick said in a recent press release. 

“The Tyranena brewery is such a staple in the Lake Mills community, so we’re looking forward to hosting a great event in their beautiful space, all in support of our local nonprofit partners and community programs,” Hartwick continued. 

Tyranena, 1025 Owen Street, will host the fundraising event Monday, Aug. 30, from 6-8 p.m. All proceeds will benefit the 2021 United Way fundraising campaign. Bingo cards will be available at a cost of $10 each and the event will offer a 50/50 raffle. 

Additionally, the release stated, Tyranena will donate $1 to the United Way for every pint served during the event.

According to the release: A number of great prizes will be available for bingo winners, including Green Bay Packer apparel, coolers, portable wine glasses, gift certificates and more. A Brewer ticket and parking pass package will be awarded to a grand prize winner for a final blackout card at the end of the night.  

“We’ve always ended our bingo fundraiser night with a blackout card,” Hartwick said, noting her excitement about being able to offer the prize package. 

“We’re so excited to have a Brewer ticket package back as our prize this year, generously donated by FCCU. Should there be more than one winner, they will rock/paper/scissors until we have one winner. That was quite a fun way to end bingo last year, so we’re looking forward to it again for this year,” she said. 

Tyranena has also coordinated to have Big Daddy O’s BBQ serving up food for guests, Hartwick added. 

Said Hartwick: “We’re excited to have another great food truck included in this year’s event. Our fundraisers are very important to the overall success of our campaign, and Tyranena Brews & Bingo has been an exciting kick-off fundraiser for the past three years. 

“We know it has been a difficult year for many small businesses, so we are incredibly grateful that Tyranena is still generously offering this opportunity to our organization and donating on purchases beyond that. We feel very lucky to be involved and we hope to have a great crowd join us on Monday.”
