Description

Our parish is holding an evening consisting of video horse races where the guests bet on ten races with "funny money". It is not gambling because they do not receive cash back for anything. Thye bet with funny money and at the end of the evening they are able to purchase raffle tickets and silent auction items with the "funny money" that they won. We also sell food and drinks and charge a small admission. It is a fun night that will help us to raise funds to help renovate our deteriorating church building.
