Sandy’s Racing and Gaming in Ashland is marking one year of operation since opening to the public in October 2023. Officials said the celebration will feature live music and local craft vendors.
Andrew Steele, Executive Director of Boyd County Tourism, said Sandy’s has brought new visitors and entertainment opportunities to the county.
“People that are typically doing motorcoach tours are a little older, and casinos – slot machines and motor coach tours go hand in hand. So, we’ve been able to use it to extend some itineraries. But you know, it’s just a big asset that we’ve been able to use to sell, to bring in other things,” said Steele.
