Fort Hall Casino Hotel renovations introduced to the public

The much-anticipated Fort Hall Casino had the grand opening of all of its new renovations Wednesday. Community leaders from across the region gathered at the casino for a ribbon cutting and celebration.

This has been more than a three-year-long project and is expected to produce 500 jobs to the region.

“I have an amazing team and it’s been a wonderful wonderful ride going down this path with them,” said Fort Hall Casino CEO Pamela Gallegos.

The renovations include a new gaming floor and expansion to the casino on the west side of the building and more parking, as well as a bingo and buffet lounge on the north side.

Randy’L Teton has been anticipating this day for the past several years.

“This has been a day we’ve all been looking forward to,” Teton said. “Definitely personally, it’s been about three years that I have been working on some of the smaller aspects of the casino project.”
