*** Community Gaming Petition *** IMPORTANT
As you know the Victoria Athletics Association is supported by the Greater Victoria Bingo Association (see the heading above). The GVBA donates much needed funds enabling us to support our teams and offer such low membership dues. Without their support we would probably cease to exist as their contributions are significant.
They are hoping to evolve Victoria Bingo into a Community Gaming Centre which will assist the bingo industry in maintaining revenues to Community Charities (e.g. Us!!). Municipal approval is required from the City of Victoria and the best way to get that is show that the majority of public opinion is in favor of a Community Gaming Center. If this approval is given it will ensure their continued support to smaller charities such as the V.A.A. and may even enable larger donations.
As you can see this is very important to our association’s survival. Please take 2 minutes out of your day to go to the following link and sign the petition. All they need is your name and address and you can choose to be anonymous so no one sees your info.
The website is available here for your virtual signature. ( If you are having difficulty with the link please copy and paste the following into into your browser: http://www.gopetition.com/petitions/victoria-community-gaming-centre.html )
Thanks All! Amber Garraway |
