AMERICAN LEGION #49 AUXILIARY <br /> GAMBLING <br /> `., Gambling Manager Sharon Higgins <br /> PO BOX 463 <br /> PEQUOT LAKES, MN 56472 <br /> Phone 218-562-4019 e-mail: sharonandlarry@tds.net <br /> March 6, 2006 <br /> City of Pequot Lakes <br /> 31108 Government Drive <br /> Pequot Lakes,MN 56472 <br /> RE: Resolution License 02957 <br /> Dear Pequot City Council, <br /> We have been informed that our renewal resolution will cost$200.00. We understand <br /> that you may assess an investigation fee on organizations applying for or renewing a <br /> premises permit but we are asking you to reconsider this cost for our premise permit. <br /> Four years ago we only paid$25.00 for this permit and are asking that you consider us <br /> paying only$25.00 this year too. <br /> We are the American Legion#49 Auxiliary and we only do Monday night session bingo <br /> with this premise permit. Session bingo does not have a large profit margin. In 2005 our <br /> site profit was only$2427.82. We mainly do bingo for a community function and a place <br /> for the local senior citizen's to go and play bingo. Our average customer age is 65. <br /> We give a lot of donations to the community like the Easter Egg Hunt which is our next <br /> big project coming in April for the community children. Enclosed is a partial list of <br /> donations we have done this past year. <br /> The American Legion Post#49 has the gambling license for pull-tabs and meat raffles at <br /> the same site. <br /> Thank you for considering this. <br /> Sharon Higgins <br /> Gambling Manager <br /> Unit#49 <br />
