The Wa She Shu Casino has been purchased by the Washoe Tribe after being operated by Wind Creek Hospitality since its opening in 2016.
On Friday, the Washoe Development Corp., which is the independent business arm of the Tribe, announced it will take charge of the casino and truck stop on July 1.
Wind Creek, which is the gaming entity of the Poarch Band of Creek Indians, has operated the location south of Gardnerville since it opened.
“Washoe Development Corp., a Section 17 corporation wholly owned by the Washoe Tribe of Nevada and California, is reviewing options with the Washoe Tribal Council, for use of the 15,000-square-feet commercial building,” according to a release.
