VALLEY CREEK SCHOOL CASINO FUNDRAISING
The Valley Creek School Cooperating Society (Parent Council) is preparing for our next casino fundraiser, which will be held in Q2 (April–June 2027). We need at least 40 volunteers to fill both day and night shifts and meet our volunteer obligations.
A Sign-Up Genius will be used to coordinate volunteers for this important fundraising event. Please check back for the updated sign-up link and available positions as the event dates are confirmed.
This is where you can make a difference!
Why Your Support Matters
The revenue generated by our casino fundraiser enables the Parent Council to enhance the student learning experience at Valley Creek School. Our last two casinos each raised just over $72,00 for the school!
Funds raised through our upcoming casino will help us purchase much-needed technology for the school, including new laptops and workstations. In the past year, we were also able to invest in various physical education equipment, including our brand-new ping pong tables! We hope to continue providing this type of support to our students over the next couple of years.
Without enough volunteers, we may be unable to fulfill our casino obligations and could lose our place in the Alberta Gaming, Liquor and Cannabis (AGLC) casino rotation. This would mean losing access to a significant fundraising opportunity that brings substantial funds to our school in a short period of time.
Volunteer Information
No casino experience is required! Casino advisers will be available to assist and guide volunteers throughout each shift.
The following positions will need to be filled once the casino dates are confirmed:
General Manager
