Proceeds Use
 

The Building - No building = no place for gaming machines or pull tabs

Electricity - No electricity = no power for electronic gaming devices or lights to see paper pull tabs

Trash Pickup - No trash pickup = no disposal of unused paper pull tabs

Employees - No employees = no sales of paper pull tabs, no issuing of cash payouts and no disposal of unused paper pull tabs

Bottom line is that our clubs survive on the money we make through charitable gaming to pay mortgages, rent, bills, wages etc. (pretty much everything that costs to operate) even cleaning supplies, the floors around the gaming machines aren't going to clean themselves. Again, this is a bad law that doesn't only hurt our clubs, but will hurt our communities as well.
