Lilac Mall in Rochester Welcomes Granite State Bingo's Brand-New Bingo Hall

On September 1st, Granite State Bingo opened the doors of its brand-new bingo hall at the Lilac Mall, situated at 5 Milton Road in Rochester. This exciting move marks a significant transition for the organization and its dedicated charity operators.

From Dover to Rochester: A History of Charitable Impact

For the past seven years, Granite State Bingo, led by organizer Susan Monaghan, had been serving the bingo-playing community in Dover. Over this time, they catered to a staggering 30,000 players annually and played a pivotal role in supporting local nonprofits. Since 2016, this bingo hall has contributed nearly $900,000 annually to these vital organizations.

Susan Monaghan expressed her enthusiasm about the move, saying, “We look forward to fostering a strong partnership between the residents of Rochester and the nonprofits we serve as we open the doors on this new, larger bingo hall. For many of the nonprofits I work with, charitable bingo revenue is the lifeblood of their organizations and the services they provide. If we couldn’t find a new home, those services would be in jeopardy.”

Supporting Local Causes: A Commitment to Charity

Granite State Bingo is committed to supporting the community by partnering with seven charity organizations, each representing a day of the week. These partners include Dover Youth Hockey, Triangle Club, Dover Loyal Order of the Moose, Saint Ignatius Parish, Dover Rotary Club, My Friend’s Place, and Victims Inc. In the future, Granite State Bingo plans to expand its charitable reach by inviting one or two additional nonprofit operators through a Saturday matinee event in the coming months.
