I attended a workshop class and we were told charitable gaming money cannot be used to pay wages or bills etc., charitable gaming monies raised can only be used for operational costs of charitable gaming. Private clubs like ours depends on charitable gaming to raise funds to keep our clubs open; no clubs = no charitable gaming.

My opinion is operational costs of the club as a whole is operational costs of our charitable gaming. Without a building there is no charitable gaming, without electric there is no charitable gaming, without employees to oversee and maintain gaming there is no charitable gaming. This is a regulation that is going to cause many clubs to close our doors.
