Rob Jensen, a 53-year Danish Brotherhood member, organizes the event. He took over when long-time bingo organizer Keith Koegler had to step down due to health reasons.
“My dad joined the Brotherhood in 1930. I promised him that I’d keep it going,” Jensen told the Ludington Daily News.
The Danish Brotherhood purchased the Hall in 1895. It was previously a Methodist church.
“We started bingo through the state in 1973, but as far as bingo goes, we’ve had it here for 60 or 70 years,” Jensen said. “Before the state organized it, they used to do it for canned food and stuff like that.”
