Bingo Fridays!

VFW Post 8720 is proud to have the Abita Civic Organization host Bingo Night to raise money to support our local community. The VFW is a member of the Abita Civic Organization, a nonprofit organization. We rely on their donations from bingo, other fundraising events and donations to provide programs and services for local veterans and community members in need. Our doors are open at 6:15pm and first ball is called at 7:30pm. We hope you'll come out and enjoy an evening of bingo with us, all while supporting our veterans.
