C.(1) Each licensee shall designate an active member and a sufficient number of
alternate members of the organization to be in charge of and primarily responsible for each
session of a game of chance. Such individual, or alternates, who shall be designated as the
member-in-charge, shall supervise all activities of such session and be responsible for the
conduct of all games of such session. The member-in-charge or alternate shall be present at
all times on the premises during the session. The provisions of this Paragraph shall only
apply to call bingo sessions.
(2) Each licensee shall designate an active member of the organization to be
responsible for the documentation of receipts and disbursements as well as the maintenance
of all financial records. Such individual designated shall have been a member in good
standing of the organization and shall be familiar with the provisions of this Chapter,
applicable local ordinances and regulations, and the rules and regulations of the office.

gaming account to any other bank account controlled by the organization, subject to the
