2-May-06. Hard to hit jackpot with community bingos. Edmonton Journal, B1.

This articled discusses the plight of traditional community bingo events in the City of Edmonton. Only seven Edmonton organizations are still licensed to offer the small-stakes social game and two community leagues are questioning whether to continue. This form of bingo has been a victim of declining interest, shrinking revenues, competition from multi-charity associations that run in facilities with big prizes, and other forms of wagering such as casinos and VLTs.
