Justin was one of several artist’s who submitted their artwork in the recent contest and was selected as the winner. As a former employee of Treaty Entertainment it brings his connection to the organization full circle. 

Thank you Justin for allowing our community to display your beautiful artwork on the new Gaming Building.

Community Members:

 

We are pleased to inform everyone that our Gaming Buildings will re-open early this evening on or around 5:00pm, we will also have reduced hours moving forward of 8:00am to 12:00am (Midnight.) for the time being our Treaty Entertainment on James Street will remain closed. We look to open that location in the near future as well.

 

Our staff have all been trained to properly clean and sanitize our facilities. Social Distancing measures are also in place both inside and outside of the building. We have reduced the number of VLT’s in operation so we can achieve social distancing.

 

There are several other safety measures which have been implemented, upon arrival our staff have been instructed to inform patrons of the new house rules that have been put into place for everyone’s safety.

 

A significant amount of work was undertaken to ensure we were able to reopen. I would like to thank our Treaty General Manager, Managers, Supervisors and staff for working diligently to ensure we are ready to re-open in a safe manner. Our Director of Commercial Operations for successfully submitting and receiving approval of our operations plan and our Construction Renovation Crew for ensuring our buildings have the appropriate renovations and six-foot social distancing markings on the exterior of our buildings. 

 

I wish everyone the best of luck, and I look forward to seeing our gaming buildings back in operation.

 

Sincerely,

 

 

 

Chief Bob Gloade
