Bingos & Casinos - 2025-26
Bingos help generate revenue for the AUC & their participaing clubs. Funds earned are used to fund AUC programs and club projects. The monies received from each bingo are divided among the participating clubs based on the number of volunteers from each club. The AUC retains a portion of the bingo revenue to offset operating costs. Clubs receive yearly reports on their fund status.
​
The AUC must follow the Alberta Gaming Commission guidelines on how the money can be spent to ensure the continuation of these funds for future use. For example, some clubs decide to use their credits to pay for pool facility rental or purchase equipment or lifesaving, 1st Aid equipment, etc. Expenditures not approved are meals, liquor, gifts for volunteers, etc.
​
Note: ALGC's Gaming Guidelines requires at least 50% of Gaming proceeds to be spent on "Youth & Youth Programs".

Casinos are held approx every 24 months in the Edmonton area. This is an important source of funds for the Council's programs for the whole province of Alberta. Most of Canada's underwater councils have lost all their provincial funding so are no longer active. The AUC has been able to continue to support scuba diving & u/w sports due to having this stable source of funds.
