The Santa Fe Chamber of Commerce should read the class room.

The Santa Fe Chamber of Commerce is hosting a ‘Bags and Bullets Bingo’ event, co-sponsored by Carnes Funeral Home—a partnership that feels disturbingly out of touch. Given the tragic mass shooting at Santa Fe High School, it raises serious concerns about whether firearms, including those similar to the ones used in the tragedy, are being raffled or auctioned off. For a civic organization to host a gun-centered fundraiser in a community that lost innocent children just for going to school is deeply insensitive. In 2025 a middle school booster club was raffling off a gun:

Locally the Leadership Development Corps booster club at Clear Lake Intermediate is having a raffle for a gun and a gun club gift certificate. The gun isn’t an AR15 like the kind that was used for killing 19 children in Uvalde or a sawed off shotgun that was used in the Santa Fe shooting.

The raffle was cancelled. The designer bags are classy. The guns are sick. If interested you can contact the Santa Fe Chamber at (409) 925-8558 office@santafetxchamber.com
