LGBT Qmunity Celebrates Halloween With Bingo


“Darkness falls across the land/ The Bingo hour is close at hand/ Creatures crawling in search of blood/ Will terrorize Westover Country Club.”

[Bridgeport, PA]— On Saturday, October 29th the LGBT Qmunity Center of Montgomery County celebrated Halloween with their annual Mas”queer”ade Bingo at the Westover Country Club. The night consisted of family and “fiends” dressing in their most festive and ghoulish costumes taking over the country club. They toasted and “feared” with cocktails and a delicious spread provided by caterer T’Dori, located in Conshohocken, PA. Through the event attendees were playing for the chance to win cash and big raffle prizes donated from the night’s array of sponsors. Guests were entertained throughout the event from the lovely and “boo”tiful hosts Summer Clearance and Thunder Showers. Not only did they host the event, but Thunder Showers capped off the night with an amazing performance of “The Time Warp” from the cult classic Rocky Horror Picture Show. But Thunder and Summer were not the only two entertaining the guests; they were joined by the marvelous drag queens:
  •  Miss Boa
  • Mary D-Knight
  • Iada Johnson
  • Morgan Fox 



These fantastic ladies entertained during the games and gave fantastic musical renditions transporting the guests into the macabre of Halloween.The night ended with a costume contest where attendees competed for Best Costume, Best Group, Scariest Costume, Best Couple, and Funniest Costume. It was also happily announced that in just six weeks the LGBT Qmunity Center would host its annual Holly-“gay” Bingo on Saturday, December 10th again at the Westover Country Club. The night will have even more fantastic performances from our lovely ladies, and if the Mas”queer”ade  bingo was a sign of things to come then Holly-”gay”Bingo will truly be a night to remember. Tickets will be available online and at the door, and if you would like to learn more about the LGBT Qmunity Center’s upcoming events and programs, or would like to become a volunteer visit www.lgbtqmunity.org.
