<strong>The</strong> Idea behind this bingo program is to raise<br />
funds for the athletic teams and the Creative Am<br />
Department a' <strong>Lowell</strong>. <strong>The</strong> money for these pro*<br />
grams. beyoLd thr allotted school budge;, previously<br />
came from candy sales or similar fundrablng pro-<br />
Jectt undertaken by individual teams or groups<br />
<strong>The</strong> main advantage of thlr program is obvious. It<br />
raises money more quickly. In larger amronts. and<br />
with less time contributed per dollar by students and<br />
coaches alike, than with the old fundraWng<br />

less than the lime il takes to order,<br />

We. the staff of <strong>The</strong> Lomtt. support this effort to<br />
