Casino Funds

We're Rich!

We have received exciting news; our cheque for proceeds from the 2008 casino has arrived. The amount for our 2 days of toil comes to $74 000. Not bad for a few hours work!

Thanks again to all the parents and staff who made the casino possible ...and FUN. I can't wait until next time to hang out with everyone again (and even make a few bucks for the students).

The money is in the care of the Haultain Memorial Parents Association and can be used for a number of great programs. Please submit your spending ideas to the association at our monthly meetings, or email the council. It's your money too!

  1. This is great news Steve - on behalf of the Association - thank you for your efforts. And I would like to add my thank you to all the volunteers who helped out in 2008's Casino, without you Haultain would be a very different place.

  3. Hey Steve - I thought that a good follow-up to this post might be one detailing our spending guidelines where gaming monies are concerned. Do we have one we can link to online, for parents to see what kinds of things we're allowed to spend that money on, on their behalf?
