No date has been set for when the Parx Casino branch in Shippensburg Township could open to the public, Richard McGarvey of the Pennsylvania Gaming Control Board said Monday.
“It will be later in the year,” he said. “As we get closer, the actual start date will become clearer.”
There will be a one-to-two-day test session where accessibility will be limited to just guests invited by the casino to go into the facility and play the games, McGarvey said. The goal is to make sure all the equipment works, the staff members are trained and the accounting procedures are in place.
Once the facility checks out, the casino would be open to the public.
