Casino event sign-ups are out one month prior to the scheduled event. The Casino requires a head count one week prior to the show date. Elders are required to physically sign yourself up in person by then. Tickets are then purchased, there are no refunds for unused tickets. Therefore, we will be strongly adhering to the set guidelines for “no shows” which reads as follows: “Elders must notify AOA of any cancellations at least 24 hours prior to an event. The exception will be for emergency situations or severe weather conditions. Elders who are not in compliance with the policy will be put on a wait-list for future events for a period of 3 months. A second offense will result in a loss of privileges for a period of 6 months.”
As a reminder, assistant’s may be put on the wait-list pending all Enrolled Seneca Elders are accommodated. Please remember to include your phone numbers when signing up for events. We call to confirm or to advise of possible changes. There is a minimum of 10 people to attend a show. If the minimum amount is not met, the event will be cancelled. Nya:wëh.
Other Venue Events
Other events such as Shea’s Theater, Sporting Events etc…are sometimes last minute and cannot be advertised due to time constraints. I would recommend popping in to either AOA location to see what’s happening as we have plenty of other services you could take advantage of. As for all shows, Elders will need to physically sign themselves up in person at either AOA location.
