?a pecya, Hello Everyone,
The health and safety of our team members and guests is our top priority. While there have not been any known COVID-19 cases at our sister casinos, Spokane Tribe Casino and Chewelah Casino will both close today, Tuesday, March 17, at 5p, with plans to reassess within two weeks the timeline for reopening.
Out of an abundance of caution, we are taking this action and abiding by guidelines set forth by the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC), the Washington State Department of Health, the World Health Organization (WHO) and our Spokane Tribe of Indians, as the COVID-19 pandemic continues to elevate concerns across our nation and around the world.
All casino team members will be paid for this upcoming two-week period. Our team members have been advised to seek medical attention if they experience symptoms consistent with COVID-19. We encourage you to do the same.
We see this as a preventative duty to our local friends, neighbors and team members. Community is a core value of the Spokane Tribe, and our guests and team members are considered part of our extended family. That sense of community can feel threatened in extraordinary times such as these. We want to assure you that we are here for members of our community and its visitors, and ready to welcome our team members and guests back when we soon re-open our casino doors.
lemlmts, Thank You, for being a valued guest.

General Manager, Spokane Tribe Casino
