Bingo
The Chippewa Youth Hockey Association is a 100% volunteer-run organization, and we’re proud to be the only volunteer association in Wisconsin that maintains two indoor sheets of ice and one outdoor rink! Our members make that possible. Your efforts help keep costs down and hockey accessible for your family.
CYHA hosts Bingo on the 1st and 3rd Wednesdays of each month. This fundraiser gives back directly to our members by keeping costs down and funding extra ice time to support your child’s skill development. Mites and each team (Squirts, Peewees, Bantams, 10U Girls, 12U Girls, and 14U Girls) will work Bingo shifts throughout the calendar year. Proceeds cover the tournament fees CYHA pays during the season, so it’s important that every team does its part.
Thank you for ALL of your help. We couldn’t do it without you!

Floor Workers - Important Info!
- Position yourselves around the bingo hall and listen/watch for people calling bingo. Floor workers will respond to the bingo and confirm the winning numbers by reading them back to the bingo caller. When reading back, only give the number, not the letter and read all of the numbers under the “B” column first, followed by the “I” column and so on. You do not need to call the “Free Space” back. Floor worker will give the winner a slip to put their name on. Once they have the name, the worker will give the slip to the check writer and get the check to return to the winner.
- Floor workers will sell the individual sheets before each of the “Special” games (four times each session). This occurs after Games 2, 7, 10 & 15. The cost of the sheets is 50 cents each and the sheets can be picked up from the check writer. Special sheets can be sold at any time. At the beginning of the night workers will get change from the check writer, and return the money after the last selling session before game 16. Unsold sheets need to be returned to the check writer to be counted.
