CS FOR HOUSE BILL NO. 268(FIN) "An Act relating to big bull moose derbies and the Snow Town Ice Classic; and relating to permits for games of chance and contests of skill." 3:10:50 PM AT EASE 3:11:23 PM RECONVENED REPRESENTATIVE TAMMIE WILSON, presented a sponsor statement: House Bill 268 would allow the Tanana Valley Sportsmen Association and the Advocates for Victims of Violence to raise funds for their nonprofit organizations. The big bull moose derbies would be managed by the Tanana Valley Sportsmen Association and will operate much like other contests already allowed under statute. This will take place during the annual moose season, by individuals that have acquired all the proper documentation already implemented by the State of Alaska to stay within the legal boundaries of the moose season. Participants must purchase a derby ticket prior to the open day of the season. Prizes are awarded based on the size or spread of the moose antlers. Anyone who enters a bull would, regardless of the antler spread, be entered into a drawing for prizes. The Tanana Valley Sportsmen's Association is a nonprofit organization that hosts training and completion events for the nationally ranked University of Alaska Nanooks Rifle Team as well as the local high schools. It is home to a multitude of community and school events; NCAA tournaments, biathlon training & competition, gun safety and personal protection classes are among the many. House Bill 268 would allow the raising of funds to further the use of the Tanana Valley Sportsmen's Association club house and support the efforts of the nationally ranked UAF Nanooks Rifle team who has produced Olympic level competitors. The Snow Town Ice Classic will be operated and administered by the Advocates for Victims of Violence. Participants must purchase a ticket and guess the total of snow accumulation in the town. Winners are determined by the closest guess of what the total snow accumulation. The Advocates for Victims of Violence is a nonprofit organization that is committed to ending domestic violence and sexual assault. Advocates for Victims of Violence provide confidential services to victims and their families and operates a safe shelter for woman and their children. A total of 18 communities are directly served by Advocates for Victims of Violence including Chitina, Glennallen, McCarthy, and Valdez. House Bill 268 would allow the raising of funds to help serve the women and children that stay in the shelter and allow the Advocates for Victims of Violence to continue to strive to end domestic violence, sexual assault, and child abuse. 3:13:47 PM Senator Olson asked whether the bill had faced any opposition. Representative Wilson that there was one individual that had opposed the legislation on the grounds that the contest would draw too many out-of-state hunters. 3:14:25 PM Co-Chair Meyer noted that public testimony on the bill would be taken at a later date. He discussed housekeeping for the following day and into the weekend.
