AI Summary
This bill amends Indiana law to allow qualified organizations to conduct "contest based raffles" as a fundraising activity, defining them as raffles where winners are determined by the outcome of a specific event or contest, such as a sport horse competition. The bill specifies that a "sport horse competition" involves Indiana-bred horses in racing or harness racing, or retired horses in jumping events, held at local events, county fairs, or the state fair. It integrates these new contest based raffles into existing regulations for charity gaming, including licensing, reporting, and operational requirements, ensuring they are conducted in a manner similar to traditional raffles and other approved gambling activities.
