We believe that we must stay focused on the tribal business arm of our government to provide for our needs. Jamestown, like many of our sister tribes, is continuing to diversify our economic portfolio.

We are investing $85 million for health clinics in McAlester and Broken Bow, building 384 homes for our tribal members that live, work, and raise their families within our reservation, as well as investing $41 million in upgrading water infrastructure and roads within the reservation.

This year, we will celebrate the much-anticipated grand opening of Great Wolf Lodge at Mashantucket later this spring, bringing family-friendly entertainment to complement the rest of our integrated resort.

The revenues generated from our casinos have contributed to the economic development and self-sustainability of Catawba, as well as the surrounding communities.

Over the last two decades, we have prioritized enhancing guest experiences, on the gaming floor and beyond, through careful planning, efficiency, and innovation. Our goal remains to promote sustainable growth while maintaining the unique identity and cultural heritage of our community.

Our gaming enterprise has been focused on employee retention and satisfaction. We cannot have a first-class gaming enterprise, hospitality and entertainment without having employees commanding the frontline positions.

As we celebrate 30 years of success, Chinook Winds is focused on the future, investing back into the property with structural upgrades and acquisitions of cutting-edge technology that will fuel the business for years to come.

Our tribal government and community remain committed to long-term resilience and sustainability as we employ development strategies that reflect our customs and traditions while ensuring continued success for generations to come.
