Hi all,

Well, I just returned from Laughlin last night and, in case no one else has reported this, The San Pasqual Band of Mission Indians has formally announced their intentions to build a $180 million casino about 6 miles east of Escondido (North San Diego county). The Indians have signed an agreement with First Nation Gaming, a Limited Liability Co. with The Tunica-Biloxi Tribe of Louisiana being the 51% owner. The 49% owner is RR Gaming of America.

This is the group the I am currently working with to find space for a dealer training facility. Next meeting today at 11:00 AM, PDST. There was a B&W rendering of the casino in the local paper here, will try to scan tonight and post to the board.

The Dir. of Casino Operations told me he has some chips and plaques for me, am keeping my fingers crossed!

Will LYK how it goes.

Regards,
Jim in San Diego
