FireKeepers Casino on Pace for Summer 2009

FireKeepers Casino, located on Interstate 94 near Battle Creek, announced today the completion of an attached five-story parking structure offering 2,078 spaces. The garage, visible from the interstate, is attached to the casino, making visiting FireKeepers convenient, safe and hassle free.

FireKeepers Casino will feature Las Vegas-style gaming, including 2,500 slot machines, 90 table games and a live poker room, along with exciting nightlife options and five restaurants.

The Tribal Council of the Nottawaseppi Huron Band of the Potawatomi Indians and construction workers signed the last pre-cast concrete panel before it was set into place, completing the parking structure.

“The Tribe is pleased with the progress made by our construction and design team keeping FireKeepers Casino on schedule for a Summer 2009 opening. At this point, 60 percent of the project is complete and we will begin focusing on the interior finishes,” said Laura W. Spurr, Tribal Chair of the Nottawaseppi Huron Band of the Potawatomi.
