We have a Casino Date! February 28th and March 1st, 2027 at the Starlight Casino in West

Edmonton Mall. We are looking for volunteers - No experience necessary. The Casino

generates funds to support the school. We have just approved funds for chromebooks &

carts, ipads for the art classroom and additional sewing machines for the fashion classroom.

Volunteers will be provided with a meal during their shift. (You must arrive slightly before 11

pm if you would like a meal with the late evening shift).

We are using the SignUp platform to register volunteers, here is the link:

Please note: After you sign up in the link above, you will be emailed a casino volunteer

worker application. Please print it off and fill it out and return it to St. Oscar Romero Catholic

High School Office. If you don’t have access to a printer, the school will have hard copies on

hand. Please take one home per volunteer and fill them out and return to the school office.

Volunteers must fill out a casino volunteer worker form for AGLC prior to the volunteer shift.

Volunteers working more than one shift must hold the same position. Volunteers are not

allowed to gamble in any way at the casino or consume alcohol or drugs during their two-day

event. Photo ID is required for the computer system.

I am confident you will find a shift to help with the various times and positions that are

available. On behalf of the St. Oscar Romero Fundraising Society and I, thank you for

supporting St. Oscar Romero Catholic High School and the students.
