Polishville opens for dances, bingo

After closing for January and February, Polishville Community Center is starting up its dances and bingo games again this month.

March kicks off with a dance, with Goodman/Anders of North English and Newhall providing the music, on Sunday. Food will be for sale at 4:30 p.m., and dancing will be from 6-9 p.m.

Lunch and bingo is planned March 12. Lunch will be 11:30 a.m. to 12:30 p.m., with bingo at 12:30 p.m.

The organization is trying something new with its bingo games, Polishville Association president Bill Peck said. The games will now be at lunchtime on the second Wednesday of each month instead of in the evenings twice a month.

Polishville will end the month with a dance March 23. Ned Francis of Mount Sterling will provided the music. Food will be for sale at 4:30 p.m., and dancing will be from 6-9 p.m.

Events are open to the public, and people of all ages can attend.

Polishville is 10 miles northeast of Fairfield on Pleasant Plain Road, then 2.5 miles east on 136th Street.
