Initiated in 2007 as a means of recognizing volunteers who assist with the Casino (AMEF’s major fundraising event which provides program funding for 2 years),
AMEF Bucks are awarded for each hour of volunteering and can be redeemed for Music Conference Alberta registration fees or towards AMEF membership fees.
Each volunteer can earn 10 AMEF Bucks for each hour they work.
AMEF gratefully acknowledges the following volunteers who worked at the Deerfoot Casino
July 8 & 9, 2009:
| Teresa & Drew Allred | Priscilla King |
| Nathene Arthur | Sheryl Krill |
| Chantal Boos | Krista Milani |
| Noah Borin | Beth Olver |
| Brenda Brown | Melrose & Bev Randell |
| Michele des Ramaux | Pat Reilly |
| Steve Donnelly | Jan & Peter Underwood |
| Alexis Hrywkiw | Greg Wagland |
| Dawn Hrywkiw | Karly Wilson |
Thank you to John Reid and Tara Alldred-Gundesen who were available as alternates.
For those who have not cashed in your AMEF Bucks on this year’s Conference, they will still be available to you for the fall 2010 Conference registration.
The next Casino Fundraiser will be in either July/August/September 2011. Funds secured from this year’s Casino amount to approximately $30,000 less than the one held two years ago.
