Pillsbury indicated that if the DAC <br />or a City organization wanted to lease an evening at the hall, <br />St. Joseph's Society would give up an evening. <br />P9r. Robert Platson, representing Roseville Youth Football Association, <br />appeared before the Council and submitted an application for a Class <br />A Bingo license for that association. Matson reported that two years <br />ago he became involved in the Association as they were out of funds <br />and thinking of going out of business. Matson started a pull-tab <br />operation at Paul's Place for the Association and in a year's time <br />$70,000 was raised through this operation. <br />P1atson explained that the group encompasses more than just youth <br />football, and is actually a youth association serving the entir2 <br />North Suburban area. A committee has been formed of the presidents <br />of various youth athletic associations in the area, not just Roseville, <br />that administers where the money raised through the pull-tab operation <br />will oo. P1atson explained that the group is not intended to just <br />serve Roseville, but the entire area. <br />P1atson submitted a list of the various people forming the North <br />Suburban Youth Association indicating that not all of these people <br />are residents of Roseville. <br />Matson also submitted a listing showing the number of Little Canada <br />residents ~aho have participated in Roseville athletics. <br />P4atson reported that the North Suburban Youth Association has <br />established a grant program under which an organization can apply <br />for funding for youth-related activities. The Association, however, <br />does not pay the association directly, but rather vendors. Matson <br />informed the Council of the various contributions the Association has <br />made in the past year. <br />Matson reported that the North Suburban Youth Association operates <br />under the name of the Roseville Youth Football Association because <br />in order to meet State guidelines for charitable gambling licenses, <br />a group must have non-profit status for the past three years. The <br />North Suburban Youth Association is using the non-profit status of <br />the Roseville Football Association. <br />Paqe -6- <br />
