Hello Piranhas,

If you go to the events tab of the website you will see that meet RSVP's and job signups have been opened for the remaining swim meets for the season. 

CASINO

On the events tab you will also see the Casino volunteer signup. The Piranhas get the opportunity to do a casino once every 3 years. This is a huge fundraiser for our club and the earnings provide a substantial portion of our revenue each year, which help keep our swim fees down.

Date: Wednesday September 6th & Thursday September 7th, 2023

Location: Cash Casino/Ace Casino Blackfoot. 4040 Blackfoot Trail SE, Calgary

Shifts:  All of the casino shifts have been loaded into the system along with descriptions of each position. Unlike our regular volunteering process if you choose a shift here that will be the shift that you will be scheduled for so you can plan accordingly. I know this is a long way away and we can alter the signups closer to the date as necessary. I just need to have the key slots filled before I can apply for our Casino licence in early July.

Shift allocation: Up until June 30th all families will be allowed to sign up for one shift.  If there are remaining shifts after June 30th we will open the signup for families with multiple children swimming to take a second shift. If there are any unclaimed spots after that we will open it to anyone to fill the remaining slots. 

Credits: Every shift that a family works for the casino will be offered a credit towards their child's swim fees in the 2024 season. By AGLC regulations we are able to offer 10% of our total casino earnings as credits back to the families that volunteer. The final credit amount that will be provided will be calculated once our club receives the gaming revenue in Q1, 2024. This is expected to be approximately $150 per shift.

Worker Application Form: All positions (other than countroom staff and chip runners) must fill out the worker application form (attached). Please send completed forms to kendra517@gmail or give to me in person. 

If you have any questions about the casino please let me know.

Thanks,
Kendra
