This online session, designed for the North Andover community, explores how to meet new people at a bingo event. Many enjoy the game but find it challenging to connect, whether playing online or at a local hall. You can feel stuck, focusing only on your cards. This talk provides simple, low-pressure strategies to make your next bingo outing—virtual or in-person around North Andover—more social and enjoyable.

We will explore the importance of small actions that make a big difference.

These contextual openers feel less forced and can easily lead to a friendly chat. The goal is to understand how to use the shared activity as a bridge for connection, helping you feel more a part of the North Andover social fabric.
