Wind Creek Casino Concerts 2019

Posted onby admin
The Poarch Band of Creek Indians announced plans to pursue a commercial casino in Illinois, joining at least two other tribal nations already in the game. The $275 million proposal features a 64,000-square-foot casino with more than 1,300 slot machines and 56 table games, along with an entertainment center, three restaurants, two bars, a skyline lounge and a 251-room hotel with an indoor pool and spa, according to news reports. It would be located in the village of Homewood, about 26 miles south of downtown Chicago. 'Wind Creek Hospitality has a proven track record of success in developing high-quality and successful casino and entertainment projects, and we're excited about the opportunity to bring one to Illinois,' Brent Pinkston, the chief operating officer for the Alabama-based Wind Creek Hospitality, the tribe's gaming and hospitality arm, said in a news release quoted by the media. The Forest County Potawatomi Community is also pursuing a commercial casino in Waukegan, Illinois. The tribe operates the Potawatomi Hotel & Casino, an Indian gaming facility, in neighboring Wisconsin. The Seminole Tribe, through its Hard Rock International enterprise, is in the game too. The project is in Rockford, near the northern border of Illinois with Wisconsin. A new Illinois law authorizes up to six casinos in the state. Ten are already in operation. The Poarch Band, through Wind Creek Hospitality, either operates or manages tribal and commercial casinos across the U.S. and in other countries. The Seminoles do the same with Hard Rock. The Forest County Potawatomi Community's proposal in Illinois is a first for the tribe.

Montgomery, AL, Nov. 12, 2019 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- The Poarch Band of Creek Indians will be closing out their Alabama Natives Concert Series with Rolling Stones Keyboardist Chuck Leavell with special guest Dan Penn at the Capri Theatre on Wednesday, November 20th.

Chuck Leavell was born in Birmingham, Alabama and at age15, moved to Muscle Shoals where he started his music career. He has been pleasing the ears of music fans for many years now.

The Poarch Band of Creek Indians are descendants of a segment of the original Creek Nation which once covered almost all of Alabama and Georgia. Unlike many eastern Indian Tribes, the Poarch Creeks were not removed from their tribal lands and have lived together for almost 200 years in and around the reservation in Poarch, Alabama. The reservation is located eight miles northwest of Atmore, Alabama in rural Escambia County, and 57 miles east of Mobile. The Poarch Band of Creek Indians is the only federally recognized Indian Tribe in the state of Alabama, operating as a sovereign nation with its own system of government.

The Tribe operates a variety of economic enterprises including Wind Creek Hospitality, an authority of the Poarch Band of Creek Indians. Wind Creek Hospitality manages the Tribes gaming facilities including: Wind Creek Atmore, Wind Creek Wetumpka, Wind Creek Montgomery, Wind Creek Bethlehem, Wa She Shu Casino in Nevada, Renaissance Aruba Resort & Casino, Renaissance Curacao Resort & Casino as well as racetracks in Alabama and Florida.

The Tribe also operates Creek Indian Enterprises Development Authority (CIEDA), the economic development arm of the Tribe. CIEDA manages on their behalf: Muskogee Technology, Media Fusion, Creek Convenience Store Atmore, Creek Convenience Store Wetumpka, Creek Travel Plaza, OWA, and other non-gaming economic endeavors.

The Poarch Band of Creek Indians is an active partner in the state of Alabama, contributing to economic, educational, social and cultural projects benefiting both Tribal Members and residents of these local communities and neighboring towns. The Tribe’s Planned Giving Campaign includes significant donations to local schools, education scholarships, senior centers, youth athletics, and charitable organizations.
