Eileen Smelski went to play bingo Friday afternoon at the Dauphin Active Living Centre knowing it was going to be a small crowd.
“I was there to be there,” said Smelski, who said she knew a lot of the people who were on a bus that collided with a semi-trailer while crossing Highway 1 at Highway 5 Thursday.
The bus was carrying 25 people, mostly seniors from the Dauphin area, and was headed to a casino near Carberry, Man. Of the people on the bus, the crash left 15 dead and 10 injured.
“It’s very sad,” she said. “Today bingo was very, very small.”
