\"\"Volunteers Needed for ASRAB Casino Fundraiser<\/strong><\/p>\n

Alberta Sports and Recreation Association for the Blind (ASRAB) is holding an upcoming casino fundraiser! We are looking for a few persons to fill volunteer positions that are required over the two days. Hosting a Casino is a primary fundraising event for ASRAB.<\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

These funds go a long way towards enabling ASRAB to meet our mandate of supporting sport and recreation opportunities for people who are visually impaired including our gymnastics, soccer, physical literacy, cross-country skiing, dragon boat, goalball programs and many more! This is a great event to meet and work alongside other ASRAB volunteers and members.<\/p>\n

The positions that are available are:<\/p>\n

Cashier<\/strong>: Redeems players’ chips for cash. Little data entry required.<\/p>\n

Chiprunner<\/strong>: Delivers chips from the Banker to the game tables as required. Will count chips with the gaming floor staff as required. A fair amount of data entry is required.<\/p>\n

Countroom Staff<\/strong>: Will sort and use money counting machines to count money. Some data entry required.<\/p>\n

General Manager<\/strong>: Responsible for overall continuity of casino, including filling any position as necessary to facilitate breaks.<\/p>\n

Banker<\/strong>: Controls all cash and chip inventories. Data entry required.<\/p>\n

Note that all positions involve doing some data entry by the volunteers on PDAs (small handheld computers) – but it is very easy!<\/p>\n

Where<\/strong>: Cowboys Casino (421 – 12 Avenue SE) in Calgary<\/p>\n

When<\/strong>: Thursday October 12 and Friday October 13, 2023<\/p>\n

The shifts that are available for both days are:<\/p>\n

Ages<\/strong>: 18+<\/p>\n

Registration<\/strong>: email program.operations@asrab.ab.ca<\/a> with your shift\/ position preference. Please also provide your contact phone\/ cell number.<\/p>\n

Thanks very much for your consideration! We look forward to working with you on this key ASRAB fundraiser. Your assistance would be greatly appreciated.<\/p>\n

ASRAB relies on support from community members like you to make adapted sport accessible and affordable to all Albertans with a visual impairment. Please donate today.<\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
