RESILIENCE: Investment in our current workforce through development and education is a high priority. This includes assisting tribal members and team members with educational tuition assistance and relevant jobs within in our enterprises. We continue to enhance our connections with local educational and professional institutions to create relevant and needed career pathways. We also provide paid training to our current team members that are looking to learn necessary functions for their team so they can then bring back that knowledge to train our other team members.
Investments within our communities is also a primary objective, ensuring economic growth. Building strong partnerships with local businesses, non-profits, local government agencies and community groups creates positive economic and cultural advances. One example is sponsoring the local Flag Day parade. We are the primary sponsor of that event and are able to share our hospitality and provide an open partnership between the local community and the Quinault Nation.
Reinvestment in our infrastructure has also been a strong goal – to ensure we offer the best in guest service and hospitality provided by the Quinault Indian Nation and Quinault Beach Resort & Casino. When guests arrive at the resort, they don’t just see beautiful ocean views – they step into a space that tells the Quinault story. From the woven baskets and historic photographs in the lobby, to the Quinault artwork hanging in every guest room, our culture is proudly on display. But the greatest representation is our people. Tribal members have been at the heart of the resort since the very beginning – working across departments, leading with hospitality, and offering every visitor a warm welcome grounded in Quinault values. Dining at the resort is more than a meal – it’s a celebration of our natural resources and time-honored traditions. The menus across the property proudly feature Quinault-caught seafood from Quinault Pride Seafood, bringing the bounty of our waters to the plates of thousands of guests each year. From the 155 oceanfront guest rooms adorned with tribal art, to the relaxing spa and gift shop filled with Native-made goods, every corner of the resort speaks to our heritage. As a home away from home for guests, and a legacy for the Quinault people, the success of this property has provided opportunities, jobs, and vital economic growth – not only for the Quinault people, but for the surrounding community as well.
GAMING: This June, the Quinault Indian Nation proudly celebrates a remarkable milestone: the 25th anniversary of Quinault Beach Resort & Casino. What began as a vision to bring opportunity, pride, and prosperity to the Quinault people has become a thriving symbol of tribal success, sovereignty, and cultural strength. For a quarter of a century, Quinault Beach Resort & Casino has stood not just as a destination, but as a reflection of our values, our history, and our commitment to building a brighter future for generations to come. The story of Quinault Beach Resort & Casino is also one of perseverance, vision, and unity. We now look back with pride – and ahead with purpose – as we kick off a yearlong anniversary celebration beginning this June. Furthermore, we continue to improve our gaming infrastructure with new gaming offerings like electronic table games. We will also continue to provide live entertainment celebrating this amazing milestone in our journey.
