An off-Strip casino will celebrate the grand opening of its new smoke-free gaming expansion next week with a charity slot tournament benefiting 10 Southern Nevada organizations.
Palms hotel-casino will hold a ribbon-cutting ceremony Sept. 1 for its new 7,300-square-foot, fully enclosed non-smoking gaming space, which opened to the public on Monday.
The celebration will include the inaugural “Spin It Forward” IGT Charity Slot Challenge, featuring Las Vegas personalities playing slot machines on behalf of local nonprofit organizations, according to a news release.
Each of the 10 participating organizations will receive a $2,500 donation from the San Manuel Gaming and Hospitality Authority, which owns and operates the Palms, for a combined $25,000.
