These <br /> uses are described by North Dakota Century Code§53-06.1-11.1(2)and North Dakota Administrative Code §99-01.3-14-02. Refer to the <br /> backside of the"Report on a Charity Local Permit"form for a general list of eligible uses. <br /> For a charity local permit, one method to ensure that the total of all cash prizes and retail value of all merchandise prizes do not exceed <br /> $12,000 is to charge each player a standard amount at the start of the event for a certain number or value of chips. If a player loses all of the <br /> player's chips, the player may re-buy chips. The player would play games and, at the end of the event, the organization would auction <br /> merchandise prizes to the players. The player who bid the highest number or value of chips for a prize would win that prize. For those players <br /> who have chips but did not successfully bid on a prize,the organization may redeem the chips for a predetermined cash value per chip. For <br /> this method,the value of the players'chips redeemed for cash is not a prize. <br /> INFORMATION REQUIRED TO BE PREPRINTED ON A STANDARD RAFFLE TICKET: <br /> 1.
