Queen of Diamonds Game Play at Post 142
Questions about the eligibility to play the Post 142 Queen of Diamonds Game appear to be increasing in frequency, so delineation of eligibility rules and requirements seem to be in order.
Play is only available to "active members" of the American Legion, American Legion Auxiliary, or Sons of the American Legion. An "active member" is one who possesses 2024 membership. Post 142 "ticket sellers" can only definitively verify a potential "purchasers" active status by visually inspecting the purchaser's current "2024" membership card. No one is eligible to purchase Queen of Diamond tickets without presenting his or her 2024 membership card. There will be no exceptions to this requirement to ensure equitable play for all current members.
Active members may not purchase tickets for anyone but themselves. Queen of Diamonds Game winners will also be required to present their current, 2024 membership cards before any disbursement of prizes will be made.
In summary: A player's Active Membership Card (Currently 2024) must be shown:
1) Prior to purchase of tickets
2) Prior to receiving any prize award
