ABC30 - Harrah's is out, but another well known company may be in after Harrah's Entertainment backed out of the deal with a local Indian tribe to build a massive casino resort just one mile from Table Mountain. Action News is learning more about another company who may be interested in taking over the Harrah's deal, but striking any agreement could still be weeks away. "I've heard that Hard Rock casinos are interested in coming to the county. Whether that's true or not, I don't know. But that's the talk out in the town," said Fresno County Supervisor Henry Perea. In order for Big Sandy Rancheria members to initiate another deal, the general membership must first vote to end the current Harrah's agreement, before negotiating a new one. http://abclocal.go.com/kfsn/story?section=local&id=4298341 Current News from The Adams Report June 22, 2006 Racing Industry Backs Bill to Place Gambling Machines at Tracks Dan Morain, Los Angeles Times - California's horse racing industry, hoping to reverse declining fortunes, proposed legislation Wednesday to authorize nearly 13,000 new video gambling machines at racetracks across the state. Las Vegas-style slot machines are legal in California only on Indian reservations — and tribes have lobbied hard in the Legislature and at the polls to defend that monopoly. Tracks have developed new "instant horse racing" machines. With flashing lights, the brightly colored machines look like slots and are activated when gamblers bet a quarter or more. But they are built in such a way that they mimic betting on a race and thus are not explicitly prohibited under state law, industry executives say. The legislation, which could be heard as early as Tuesday, seeks to specify how proceeds would be split. Much of the revenue would be poured back into horse racing in the form http://www.latimes.com/news/local/la-me-slots22jun22,1,3365328.story?coll=la-headlines-california&ctrack=1&cset=true Current News from The Adams Report May 12, 2006 Schwarzenegger reaches out to tribes Jim Miller/ Michelle DeArmond, Press-Enterprise - Gov. Arnold Schwarzenegger met for the first time ever with Inland tribal leaders Wednesday, signifying a marked change in his approach to tribes he once accused of "ripping off" taxpayers and not paying their "fair share" into the state's general fund. Tribal leaders emerged from the nearly 80-minute private talk with cautious praise for the governor but with no promises of new agreements on gaming or other issues. Schwarzenegger told the tribes he wants to talk to them individually about renegotiating the pacts that allow them to operate casinos, which the tribes said they are willing to consider…A governor's spokesman called the meeting positive. http://www.shns.com/shns/g_index2.cfm?action=detail&pk=ARNOLD-TRIBES-05-11-06 Current News from The Adams Report May 3, 2006 Tribe gets land option for casino Chet Barfield, San Diego Union-Tribune - East County's Manzanita Indian band announced yesterday that it has secured a purchase option on a 60-acre parcel in Calexico for an off-reservation hotel-casino project it has been pursuing since 2003…The Manzanita tribe, whose reservation is 50 miles from Calexico in the eastern mountains of San Diego County, is being funded by the Viejas Indian band in its bid to develop a $175 million casino with 2,000 slot machines and a 200-room hotel…Manzanita officials yesterday said they are monitoring the proposed congressional legislation but in the meantime applied last month to have the Calexico tract placed into federal trust, essentially annexing it to the http://www.signonsandiego.com/uniontrib/20060503/news_2m3calex.html Agua Caliente Casino Website www.hotwatercasino.com General Info Opened in April, 2001. 45,000 square feet, about 1,000 slots, 45 tables, bingo, 6 restaurants, showroom, lounge, video poker bar, Platinum Room for high-denomination slots and table games.

Current News from The Adams Report April 18, 2006 New slots put to the test Howard Stutz, Gaming Wire - To customers at Barona Valley Ranch, the slots in a 20-machine bank don't appear to be much different than any of the casino's 1,980 other games. But for officials of the East San Diego County American Indian casino and gambling equipment maker International Game Technology, the 20 games represent the beginning of a breakthrough in the future makeup of slot floors. Barona is the first California casino to test market server-based gaming developed by IGT. http://www.reviewjournal.com/lvrj_home/2006/Apr-18-Tue-2006/business/6735511.html Barstow Casino Projects Current News (June 13, 2006) Voters signal support for casino plan By Howard Stutz, Gaming Wire - Tribal casinos in Barstow, Calif., have taken another step toward gaining a footing about 120 miles west of the Nevada border. Voters in the high desert community last week rejected a referendum that would have stopped two Indian tribes from building side-by-side casinos in Barstow, near the city's well-visited outlet malls off Interstate 15. The tribes, which have signed agreements with California's governor and are going through additional state and federal OKs, could start building their twin casinos by late 2007 or early 2008 if all of the approvals are met... Under a plan unveiled last year, two tribes -- the Los Coyotes Band of Cahuilla and Cupeno Indians from San Diego County and the Big Lagoon Rancheria Band of Humboldt County -- would build twin casinos on 47 acres near Barstow's outlet malls. http://www.reviewjournal.com/lvrj_home/2006/Jun-13-Tue-2006/news/7922068.html Current News from The Adams Report May 23, 2006 Gaming measure opposed Chuck Mueller, San Bernardino Sun - Heeding signals from Sacramento, the City Council reversed its neutral stance Monday on Measure H, voting 3 to 2 to oppose a June 6 ballot initiative to create a tribal gaming zone here. The swing vote was cast by Mayor Pro Tem Gloria Darling, who changed her stance on the measure on grounds that state legislators won't back a casino for Barstow unless the council opposes the initiative. "Legislators want a `no' vote (by the council) on Measure H," she said. The governor has signed a compact with the Los Coyotes and Big Lagoon tribes as a vital step toward authorizing them to open side-by-side casinos here. But state legislators are straddling the fence on the issue, saying Barstow leaders need to voice support for the compact and oppose Measure H if they expect legislative backing for local gaming. http://www.sbsun.com/news/ci_3853902 Bear River Casino Website www.bearrivercasino.com General Info Opened in Aug. 2005.

Current News from The Adams Report June 8, 2006 City writes Feinstein about casino Josh Richman, Tri-Valley Herald - An East Bay city staunchly defended its tribal card room in a letter sent Tuesday to a U.S. senator who is trying to shut it down, predicting fiscal doom should that happen and offering the tribes written vow not to expand. San Pablo City Manager Brock Arners letter was in response to a May 31 letter sent by 13 state lawmakers to U.S. Sen. Dianne Feinstein, D-Calif., whose pending bill would revoke the Lytton Band of Pomo Indians' right to conduct gaming at Casino San Pablo. San Pablo now gets about $12 million per year from the card room to be used for police protection, recreational programs for our youth, and for tax relief, Arner wrote, adding the card room provides 500 jobs. Closure will eliminate these well-paying jobs, cause a funding crisis for the city, and return tribal members to a life of grinding poverty... http://www.insidebayarea.com/trivalleyherald/localnews/ci_3912843 Current News from The Adams Report June 2, 2006 State officials want casino curbed Josh Richman, Alameda Times-Star - State lawmakers are urging swift passage of a U.S. Senate bill to roll back the Lytton Band of Pomo Indians' gaming rights at the tribe's Casino San Pablo. A letter sent Wednesday by 13 Assembly and state Senate members to U.S. Sen. Dianne Feinstein, D-Calif., voices gratitude and an "urgent need" for her bill, S.113, to pass in 2006. "It is our belief that without S.113, the Lytton tribe will expand the existing card room at Casino San Pablo into a massive casino," the lawmakers wrote… Feinstein's bill would bar the Lyttons even from operating those by repealing part of a 2000 amendment that "backdated" the land's placement in trust for the tribe so it was deemed to have happened before Oct. 17, 1988 — the Indian Gaming Regulatory Act's effective date, after which gaming on newly acquired land requires rigorous bureaucratic review. Subjecting Casino San Pablo to such review could delay the Lytton Band's gaming plans by years, though the tribe would keep the ninehttp://www.insidebayarea.com/timesstar/localnews/ci_3887183 Current News from The Adams Report May 18, 2006 Residents to get yearlong break on utility tax rate Tom Lochner, Contra Costa Times - Keeping a promise it made two years ago, the San Pablo City Council on Monday lowered the Utility Users Tax rate for a year, beginning in July. The reduction of 2 percent, from the current 7 percent down to 5 percent, will cost the city $600,000 next fiscal year, according to a city staff estimate. The city's general fund can absorb the hit thanks to the money the Lytton Rancheria's Casino San Pablo contributes to city coffers by virtue of a 1999 Municipal Services Agreement between the city and the tribe…In January, City Manager Brock Arner raised his projection of the city's take from the casino at $8.5 million for the fiscal year ending June 30. Last summer, Arner had projected $6.6 million to $6.9 million. Under the 1999 agreement, the casino pays the city $1.5 million a year in lieu of taxes and a share of casino profits that should amount to about $7 million this fiscal year, Finance Director Bradley Ward said in January. http://www.contracostatimes.com/mld/cctimes/news/local/states/california/14598963.htm Cher-Ae Heights Casino Website www.cheraeheightscasino.com General Info 50,000 square foot casino, about 350 slots, 10 tables, bingo, 4 restaurants, 78-room hotel with seventyeight rooms. 27 Scenic Drive, Trinidad, California 95570 (800) 684-2464.

(NASDAQ: CKNN), a provider of cash access solutions for the gaming industry, today announced two new multi-year contracts, including Gold Bear Casino located in Northern California, where Cash Systems will provide check cashing, all-in-1atm services and ecashsystems for cash advance services. Gold Bear Casino is expected to host its grand opening later this month and will feature between 150 and 200 slot machines as well as a cafe. http://home.businesswire.com/portal/site/google/index.jsp?ndmViewId=news_view&newsId=20060607005443&newsLang=en Current News from The Adams Report April 10, 2006 Ann Johnson-Stromberg, Eureka Times-Standard - The Resighini Rancheria is hoping the fourth time will be the charm. Three previous casinos near the Klamath Bridge have closed for one reason or another, but the Resighini has already put up a new structure and hopes to open the new Gold Bear Casino by May 26. The casino was previously called Golden Bears. Marketing Consultant Bill Foss said the casino will feature between 150 and 200 slot machines and a cafe…The tent-like sprung structure and interior are currently under construction…the official grand opening celebration isn't expected until June… The second was a small temporary casino in a 40-foot trailer that operated for six months in 1997. The tribe then found investors for the operation and opened a sprung structure casino -- like the one recently constructed -- in mid-1998. After two years of operation, however, it also closed. http://www.times-standard.com/business/ci_3688234 Graton Rancheria Casino Project Tribal Info Graton Rancheria Current News from The Adams Report April 21, 2006 Casino building slated for early 2007 Paul Payne, Santa Rosa Press Democrat - Construction of a tribal casino near Rohnert Park could begin early next year, when two important regulatory hurdles are expected to be cleared, partners in the project said Wednesday.

At the same time, a federal environmental review of the 279 acres will be wending its way toward certification with the National Indian Gaming Commission, something that could happen by February, Tribal Chairman Greg Sarris said. http://www1.pressdemocrat.com/apps/pbcs.dll/article?AID=/20060420/NEWS/604200338/1033/NEWS0 Feather Falls Casino Website www.featherfallscasino.com General Info 32,000 square foot permanent casino opened February, 1998. 12 blackjack tables plus high-limit tables, poker, 1,000 slots, 2 restaurants. 70 miles north of Sacramento. #3 Alverda Drive, Oroville, California 95966 1-877-652-4696 or 530-533-3885 Tribal Info Mooretown Rancheria Players Club Info: Bonus Magic Club Receive 1 pt.

The tribe in December issued an environmental report describing its plans for a 35,000-square-foot casino with 500 slot machines, a 5,000-square-foot restaurant and a 150-room hotel. The 700-member La Jolla band previously ran a 30-machine slot arcade, once San Diego County's smallest tribal gaming operation, in a convenience store next to Highway 76. The arcade opened in 2002 but was overshadowed by larger neighboring casinos at the Pala and Rincon reservations and closed about a year ago. The La Jolla band in 2004 announced a $25 million deal to expand its gaming operation with a Texas-based management firm called Nevada Gold. Under the state government's compacts, the La Jolla tribe's plans to have 500 slots will push it into the ranks of tribes that do not get revenue-sharing funds from http://www.nctimes.com/articles/2006/01/04/news/inland/20_42_241_3_06.txt La Posta Tribal Casino Tribal Info www.kumeyaay.com Current News (June 20, 2006) La Posta band sees small casino as big player La Posta Indian Reservation - By Chet Barfield, staff writer - The La Posta Indian band is hoping that scenic view – and an indoor-outdoor International House of Pancakes restaurant – will entice gamblers to drive a mile uphill from the Campo tribe's much larger Golden Acorn Casino.

Current News from The Adams Report May 12, 2006 Tribe's Application Raises Petaluma Casino Concerns CBS 5 San Francisco - The Dry Creek Rancheria Band of Pomo Indians has asked the federal government to take into trust 277 acres of land it bought last year south of Petaluma, raising speculation the tribe is planning to build a resort, hotel or casino there. The tribe owns and operates the River Rock Casino in Geyserville in northern Sonoma County. A casino located on the land south of Petaluma would sandwich a proposed hotel and casino in Rohnert Park by the Federated Indians of Graton Rancheria between the Pomo Indian Band's two gaming establishments. A spokesman for the Dry Creek Rancheria Band of Pomo Indians who did not want to be identified said this afternoon there is no specific proposal for a casino, resort or hotel and that the farmland will remain in agriculture. http://cbs5.com/localwire/localfsnews/bcn/2006/05/11/n/HeadlineNews/CASINO-PETALUMA/resources_bcn_html Robinson Rancheria Bingo & Casino Website www.robinsonrancheria.biz General Info 92,800 square foot, about 600 slots, 10 tables (blackjack, let it ride, Pai Gow, poker 3), 600-seat bingo, poker room, conference center, sports bar, 48-room hotel addition including two presidental suites. 1545 East Highway 20 in Nice, CA (north of San Francisco).

Current News from The Adams Report June 21, 2006 Thunder Valley lawsuit takes unexpected twist Dorothy Korber, Sacramento Bee - A Placer County court commissioner's tentative ruling Monday gives an intriguing -- and possibly precedent-setting -- new twist to the legal battle between Thunder Valley Casino and seven former employees who allege sexual harassment and discrimination... So far, the United Auburn Indian Community -- the tribe that owns Thunder Valley -- has fended off the casino workers' lawsuit by citing its sovereignty. It also claims that immunity cloaks Station Casinos Inc., a Nevada-based company that manages Thunder Valley for the tribe. That position, borne out in similar cases around the country, seemed virtually unassailable. In Monday's tentative ruling, however, Wells turned the sovereign immunity defense on its head…"Applying those laws to defendants would not impair the tribe's interest in governing on its lands as the tribe has committed itself to abiding by those laws," Wells wrote. http://www.sacbee.com/content/news/story/14269618p-15080658c.html Twin Pine Casino Website www.twinpine.com General Info 15,000 square foot, about 450 slots, 6 table games.

The lawsuit alleges that the San Pasqual tribe is suffering "an irreparable injury" because of the California Gambling Control Commission's refusal to issue additional licenses for gaming devices such as slot machines. It charges that the machine should be available based on the tribal gaming compacts that more than 60 tribes statewide have signed with the state…The lawsuit alleges that the terms of the gaming compacts allow a total of at least 42,700 licenses for "gaming devices like slot machines" for tribes who signed the compacts. However, the California Gambling Control Commission has determined that the tribal gaming compacts allow a total of only 32,151 gaming device licenses, and that all of those licenses already had been issued as of Oct. 7, 2005, according to the suit. http://www.nctimes.com/articles/2006/05/11/news/californian/21_30_295_10_06.txt Viejas Casino Website www.viejas.com General Info 280,000 square foot casino, about 2,500 slots, 80 tables, bingo, off-track betting, 5 restaurants, outlet mall, indoor & outdoor entertainment venues, free daily "Dreamcatcher" show.

Alba Sun-News reporter - A drive past the proposed site for a casino in Anthony reveals the usual sparseness of southern New Mexico. Bare dirt, some mesquite bushes and a barbed-wire fence occupy space that casino backers hope one day will feature the stately entrance to a full-fledged casino and hotel. Though it has been nearly two years since the Jemez Pueblo of northern New Mexico unveiled its proposal for an off-reservation casino, the tribe has yet to gain approval for the facility. Its application is under review by the federal Bureau of Indian Affairs in Albuquerque. Casino supporters admit the process is taking longer than expected but say they're not dismayed. Critics have said all along the needed approval wouldn't be given overnight, and a promise by the pueblo of 950 new jobs was, at best, years from becoming http://lcsun-news.com/news/ci_3923548reality... Current News from The Adams Report April 12, 2006 Tribe still wants to bring gaming to Anthony Darren Meritz, El Paso Times - The ambitions of Jemez Pueblo officials, who are planning to build a 48,000-square-foot, $200 million casino in Anthony, N.M., have not been tempered by proposed federal legislation that would prohibit Indian tribes from building casinos off the reservation. Paul Chinana, tribal councilman and chairman of the Jemez Enterprise Management Board, said he hopes that if any law is enacted prohibiting the development of off-reservation casinos, a grandfather clause would allow current plans to go forward. Jemez officials chose southern New Mexico for the casino site instead of the Jemez Pueblo reservation 50 miles north of Albuquerque because of the larger population that surrounds Anthony and the absence of casinos in the area... The Jemez Pueblo is in the process of meeting the conditions of an application to the U.S. Bureau of Indian Affairs. If the bureau approves the project, the secretary of the interior and New Mexico Gov. Bill Richardson will also have to approve the http://www.borderlandnews.com/apps/pbcs.dll/article?AID=/20060412/BUSINESS/604120316/1003 Ohkay Casino Website www.ohkay.com General Info About 700 slots, 5 tables, 2 restaurants, 77-rooms 24-suite Best Western hotel.

Scheduled to open in summer 2006. Tribal Info Nambé Pueblo Current News (June 22, 2006) Alliance pleased with casino plans, so far By Shannon Shaw, The New Mexican - Members of the New Mexico Heritage Preservation Alliance are satisfied with information learned at the Pueblo of Nambé's public meeting on its proposed hotel and casino, but they intend to monitor the project as it proceeds. Members of the Night Sky Program attended the pueblo's June 6 public meeting at the Lodge in Santa Fe to express concerns that the 150,000-square-foot casino and hotel planned for 30 acres of Pueblo land 15 miles north of Santa Fe would be excessively illuminated... Schematics of the hotel and casino lined the walls of the room and allowed members of the public to see for themselves what the buildings would look like... The casino's look had changed from futuristic to "high end," he said, and efforts had been made to keep exterior lighting from the hotel and casino to a minimum so visitors could see the night sky. The second floor of the casino will accommodate fine dining, and the night sky will be a main attraction, Wolf said. If the assessment is approved by the National Indian Gaming Commission, the pueblo will be free to obtain a management contract with Santa Fe-based Gaming Entertainment LLC, a subsidiary of Full House Resorts. Then construction can begin. The project includes a two-story casino, a three-story hotel, food and beverage facilities and a retail gift shop. The casino, as planned, will occupy 50,000 square feet and have 600 Class III slot machines, eight table games and a separate poker room. The food outlets include a 150-seat permanent buffet restaurant that will serve all meals, a 60-seat sit-down restaurant and a 40-seat snack bar. The gift shop will feature American Indian arts and crafts. The hotel, approximately 100,000 square feet, will have 100 guest rooms. The complex's parking lot will accommodate 900 cars and 10 oversized vehicles. http://www.freenewmexican.com/news/45009.html Current News from The Adams Report Feb. 1, 2006 Developer anticipates quick regulatory approval New Mexico Business Weekly - Full House Resorts Inc. received approval for a revised gaming management agreement from the Nambé Pueblo tribal council and expects approval from the National Indian Gaming Commission soon.

Lake Oswego entrepreneurs Bruce Studer and Matthew Rossman got the green light to collect signatures to create the state's first non-Indian casino Monday and put it before voters in the upcoming election. But the timing of the approval left casino backers with roughly two weeks to gather up 175,000 valid signatures. http://www.oregonlive.com/newsflash/regional/index.ssf?/base/news-15/1150753162294550.xml&storylist=orlocal Current News from The Adams Report June 12, 2006 Barring 18-year-olds simpler for casinos Lori Tobias, Oregonian - Most Oregon casinos bar 18-year-olds from playing poker because it's simply easier that way to comply with both alcohol and gaming laws... Under the Indian Gaming Regulatory Act, poker is a class 2 game and regulated by individual casinos, said Randy Sitton, West Coast chairman of the National Indian Gaming Commission. In class 2 games, people play against one another and provide the winnings, or bank. In class 3 games such as blackjack, roulette, slots and craps, people play against the house, which provides the winnings. Those games are open only to people 21 and older and are regulated by state and federal laws. Lincoln City's Chinook Winds, which allows 18-year-olds to play poker, says it doesn't promote the game to teens, but "we understand that poker is extremely popular with all adults and therefore encourage responsible gaming to all our guests," said Chinook's general manager, Jim Kikumoto. http://www.oregonlive.com/news/oregonian/index.ssf?/base/news/1149922575174530.xml&coll=7 Current News from The Adams Report June 9, 2006 Supreme Court approves casino initiative Associated Press, Oregonian - Ballot measures seeking to turn the defunct Multnomah Kennel Club into a casino have been approved by the Oregon Supreme Court, supporters said Thursday.

The attorney general's office said backers of the casino could proceed with a pair of initiatives that would allow a huge gambling facility at the old greyhound racetrack.

The offer, made in a letter sent last month to Warm Springs tribal Chairman Ron Suppah, is the latest in a stepped-up campaign by the Grand Ronde to block a casino from going in at Cascade Locks in the Columbia Gorge, about 40 miles east of Portland…Warm Springs operates a casino at its Kah-Nee-Ta resort on reservation land near Madras. The tribe negotiated an agreement with Gov. Ted Kulongoski to shut down that casino and open a new one at Cascade Locks, with at least 15 percent of the revenue going to the state. Grand Ronde officials objected and spent nearly $1 million on campaign ads during the primary election criticizing the proposal. The ads said, in part, that the Warm Springs casino would mar the environment in the gorge. http://www.oregonlive.com/news/oregonian/index.ssf?/base/news/1149821732263810.xml&coll=7 Chinook Winds Casino Resort Website http://www.chinookwindscasino.com/ General Info Opened in 1995. 157,000 square foot resort, 227 room hotel, 81 ocean view suites, pool, sauna & spa, restaurant and lounge, 1,200 slot machines, keno, bingo, craps, roulette, blackjack, poker, 37,000 square foot convention center, 1.300 seat showroom, 3 restaurants, supervised childcare facility (4 hour limit), 4,000 square foot video arcade. 1777 NW 44th Street, Lincoln City, OR 97367-5094 877-4-BEACH-1 Tribal Info Confederated Tribes of the Siletz Indians Players Club Info: Winners Circle Players Club Members receive cashback for points, birthday and anniversary special, 10% discount on show tickets.

Ted Kulongoski and Republican Kevin Mannix. Despite the ad blitz, Kulongoski won the Democratic gubernatorial nomination in his contest with two challengers. But Mannix went down to defeat in the May 16 GOP primary, a loss he blames in large part on TV ads the Confederated Tribes of the Grand Ronde ran against him. Now the Grand Ronde is prepared to bankroll a new round of TV ads targeting Kulongoski in the general election, if he persists in backing a competing casino that the tribe says will trash the Columbia Gorge and create unfair competition among Oregon's tribal casinos. http://www.oregonnews.com/article/20060529/NEWS/105300077 Three Rivers Casino Website www.threeriverscasino.com General Info Opened in June, 2004. 15,500 square foot casino, about 300 slots, 6 tables, 3 restaurants. 1845 Hwy 126, Florence, OR 97439 (541) 997-7529 Tribal Info Confederated Tribes of Coos, Lower Umpqua and Siuslaw Indians Players Club Info: Three Rivers Casino Players Club Member benefits include cashback, prizes, free meals, entry into drawings, more.

In 2005, it was $1.7 billion…While legislators don't have much say over tribal gambling, their decisions about nontribal gambling and the lottery fuel the expansion of tribal casinos because the tribes use it as an excuse to get more and more. http://www.shns.com/shns/g_index2.cfm?action=detail&pk=CALLAGHAN-05-30-06 Angel of the Winds Casino Website www.angelofthewinds.com/ General Info The Stillaguamish Tribe of Indians started construction of the Angel of the Winds Casino near Arlington Washington in April 2004 and opened its doors in the fall of the same year.

Current News from The Adams Report April 12, 2006 Legends bingo closed Phil Ferolito, Yakima Herald-Republic - It's unclear when Legends Casino's bingo hall will reopen after being shut down for violating gaming regulations more than two weeks ago, casino General Manager Michael Hoptowit said Tuesday. The Yakama Gaming Commission ordered the bingo hall closed March 31 after finding the problems, Hoptowit said. He wouldn't say whether the problems were related to accounting procedures or how the games were being managed…It's the second time the bingo hall at the tribally owned casino has been temporarily closed in as many years. The tribe's gaming commission oversees the casino's gambling operations, making sure it follows both tribal and federal gaming regulations. After problems surfaced about some financial reports not being done properly, the bingo hall was shut down in February 2005 for a few weeks. http://www.yakima-herald.com/page/dis/291519224663260
