“We’ve been trying to set something up for a month or two,” Switzer said. “We thought we’d have to move it to July, but then we arrived at the June 21 date.”

Switzer predicted a celebratory ceremony. “It’ll be a great day,” he said. “People from all over western Indiana should be there.”

The Indiana Gaming Commission announced on Nov. 17, 2021, that it would grant Vigo County’s casino license to CDITH LLC (Churchill Downs).
