TRENTON, NJ – (July 27, 2012) – The New Jersey Lottery has teamed up with the Council on Compulsive Gambling of New Jersey, Inc. (CCGNJ) to launch the Lottery’s 2012 “Not 18 Yet? No Bet” Annual Awareness Campaign, which seeks to remind residents and retailers that New Jersey law prohibits the sale of Lottery tickets to anyone under the age of eighteen.

 

As part of this campaign, both organizations are placing renewed emphasis on their continued commitment to responsible play and the prevention of underage gambling. This campaign is held each year to coincide with the American Gaming Association’s Annual Responsible Gaming Education Week, scheduled this year July 30 - August 3, 2012.

Thank you to all of you who presented, served on a panel discussion, and participated at Smart-Tech. This was PGRI’s fourth annual event in NYC and has become a great venue for lotteries to delve into the most relevant issues of the hour, and we so appreciate the privilege of hosting it and visiting with you.  The next issue of PGRI Magazine will include an in-depth analysis of the issues we explored.  Too, the conference was video-recorded and will be made freely available to everyone on www.PGRItalks.com.  We’ve received much positive feedback and hope that everyone accomplished their objectives.  Our next event will be held at the Trump Miami Beach Hotel on November 4, 5, 6, and 7th.  Lottery Expo Miami is especially exciting for the participation from our colleagues in Latin America.  The North America track is on Tuesday, the LatAm track on Thursday, and we all come together on Wednesday. Thanks to the support of our commercial partners and sponsors, the hosted receptions held every night of the conference have become a wonderful venue to talk with industry leaders from  all around the world.
