The Cheyenne and Arapaho Tribes are moving forward with a long-anticipated development in Elk City that promises new jobs, economic growth, and family-friendly entertainment for western Oklahoma.
Governor Wassana Gorham shared details of the project following a community meeting in Elk City, where he described plans for a new Lucky Star Casino and Hotel, along with a Convention Center, RV Park, and Travel Plaza.
The tribes have owned the Elk City property for nearly 30 years. Under Governor Gorham’s administration, the land was successfully placed into federal trust, clearing the way for construction of what leaders call a destination resort.
“This project will bring new jobs, economic growth, and opportunities for Elk City and the entire region,” Gorham said.
