Wisconsin: Ho-Chunk Gaming self-exclusion

Terms you can choose

Not verified: Two official Ho-Chunk sources disagree (both read 2026-10-01). Both revisions of the form say: 'The self-exclusion is considered permanent and irrevocable' and 'I hereby request that I be permanently excluded from all HCG-Wisconsin Gaming Enterprises.' Ho-Chunk's own Madison, Nekoosa, Wittenberg, Black River Falls and Wisconsin Dells pages say: 'Our self exclusion program allows guests to exclude themselves from any Ho-Chunk Gaming facility for a minimum of 12 months.' Neither source describes a removal process. No source says which one governs.

When it ends

Not verified.

How removal works. The form says the exclusion is permanent and irrevocable. Ho-Chunk's location pages say a minimum of 12 months. Neither describes a renewal or removal procedure, and no source says which governs. Whether the Nation operates an appeal process it does not publish has not been established.

On a lifetime term. Not verified: The form offers permanent as its only term and gives no removal route, while the operator's pages say a minimum of 12 months. Which applies is not established.

How to enroll

Open the form and sign it in person at a Ho-Chunk Gaming location.

Print the two-page form and fill in your details, then sign it at an HCG-Wisconsin gaming enterprise with a Security Officer as your witness. The form also has lines for the Security Director and an Executive Manager and a box for your picture. Downloading or filling in the form is not enrollment — the in-person signing is the only route the Nation publishes. The form says the exclusion is permanent and irrevocable, and Ho-Chunk's web pages say a minimum of 12 months. No removal process is described. Ask which applies before you sign. We don't fill in or submit this form.

1. Download the Ho-Chunk Gaming — Wisconsin self-exclusion form. It runs two pages and carries no printed revision date. We don't fill in or submit this form.
2. Fill in your name and identifying information. Leave the signature and the photo for the visit — the form is signed in person and a photo of you is attached at signing.
3. The form carries no notary block and does not say whether a notary is needed. The witness it names is a Security Officer, who signs on the line beside yours.
4. Take the form to an HCG-Wisconsin gaming enterprise and sign it there with a Security Officer as witness. The Security Director and an Executive Manager sign it too; the form does not say whether they do so while you are there.
5. No processing time and no confirmation method are published, so signing the form is not by itself a published confirmation that you are on the list. Ask the Security Director for a copy of the signed form, and write down the date.
6. The form says the exclusion is permanent and irrevocable and describes no renewal or removal procedure. Ho-Chunk's own web pages say the program lasts 'a minimum of 12 months'. Ask before you sign which one applies, and whether the Nation reviews these at all.

Official form

Before you count on it. The form names 'HCG-Wisconsin Gaming Enterprises' and does not list properties. Ho-Chunk's pages say the program covers 'any Ho-Chunk Gaming facility' and its home page lists seven locations, so ask the Security Director which locations your signed form covers. The form says the exclusion is permanent and irrevocable and describes no removal process. Ho-Chunk's own location pages say the program lasts 'a minimum of 12 months'. Nothing published says which is right, and nothing published describes an appeal. The form does address money and marketing. If you are caught playing, 'any winnings or prizes, including but not limited to jackpots, chips, tokens, machine credits, or ticket vouchers' are confiscated. You waive complimentary products and player-reward benefits you have earned. Ho-Chunk 'will take reasonable steps to remove my name from mailing lists and other means of marketing', and you agree to tell the marketing department if promotions keep coming. It does not address whether residents or visitors qualify, or what happens to credit or check-cashing privileges. It carries no notary block and does not say whether one is needed. No processing time or confirmation method is published. This is a Ho-Chunk Nation program — Wisconsin runs no statewide list, and this does not reach Potawatomi, Oneida, or any of the state's other gaming tribes.
