Quote of the Day

“We’re very proud to be part of the community. That the Nottawaseppi Huron Band of the Potawatomi provides us with the opportunity to give back is phenomenal. Most corporations, most casinos especially, don’t get to do that, and that we are able to do that, it really gives us a sense of pride.” — FireKeepers Casino Hotel CEO Kathy George. The tax-exempt casino just donated $5,656,690 to the local revenue-sharing board plus $18,126,750 to the State of Michigan. Much of the money will go to schools, the local library and for the maintenance of roads.
