Worcester County Wants Slots
The fraternal organizations in Worcester County have decided to plead
their case to the County Commissioners at a public hearing held earlier
this week. As they are currently the only county that does not allow
slots at their fraternal organizations, they thought that they would
plead their case to see if they could get the county to reconsider their
stance.
There is a law that is looking to be voted in that would allow slots in
Worcester County, and the organizations are asking the commissioners to
approve of it, instead of opting out as they did years ago. They say that
as the exemption that they used to not have slots is no longer valid, it
would seem that they would now be able to bring them in.
The fraternal organizations like the fact that they would be able to give
away more to charities than they are able to do now. With the additional
income coming in from the slots, they are required to give at least half
to charities, something they don’t mind doing. As the rest of the state
allows slots and gambling, they think that it is high time that they were
allowed it as well.
Several of the fraternal organizations say that they give away thousands
each year to various charities and that this would enable them to give
away more. They say that they would be able to do more good for others,
as well as supporting programs, etc. that they would like to see at their
lodges. They say that other counties’ organizations are able to give away
millions, and that this would make a big difference to Worcester County
if they were able to do the same.
They point out that they could always review them in 20 or so years to
see if there was a problem, and then pull them if they found that there
was. However, they don’t think that this would ever end up being an
issue.
