AHS Leos did Bingo for Seniors
On March 27th, the Ashland Leos Club, a service organization at Ashland High School sponsored by Ashland Lions, hosted a Bingo Night for the Ashland Community Center and its senior citizens. The energy was high and everyone had lots of fun! We had around twenty citizens come to play and ten Leos Club volunteers helped out. It was a successful and fun night! Thanks to the community for your support!
