Locals are Ready for Enoch Reserve
Casino
The Enoch
Reserve’s River Cree Resort and Casino is expected to be a huge draw
for the locals. The casino is expected to be up and running by late
October, and locals are already excited about the prospect. Resort
manager Brian Lee said that he believes that it will end up being the
“premier destination resort in all of Western Canada,’ especially
since it will be the largest casino in the area.
The River Cree
Resort is going to be the largest casino in the area, outpacing the
Yellowhead Casino – which is currently the city’s largest. The new
resort is going to be at least a third larger than the existing one,
and is costing over $170 million to build. The new casino will have
600 slot machines, as well as 40 gaming tables. Depending on how
business goes, the group may increase the number of slot machines to
1,200. The slot machines will pay out 92.4% of the money they are
going to bring in, which is the standard established by the Alberta
Gaming and Liquor Commission.
But slot
machines are not the only draw for the locals – they will have more
than slots to pick from. There will be the slot machines and gambling
tables of course, but there are restaurants, hotel rooms, a sports bar
and grill, hockey rinks with bleacher seating, and plenty of games to
watch as well. A spokesperson for the group says that they already
have over 700 hockey players signed up to play on the rink. The hotel
will have a swimming pool and fitness room, really leaving nothing up
to chance.
