The casino wrote on Facebook last week that staff were working with a team of professionals to reopen the Red Wind as quickly as possible.

“We value our guests and will honor all missed offers at a later date. Please stay tuned for further updates regarding our reopening,” Nisqually Red Wind Casino wrote. “We appreciate your understanding and look forward to seeing you soon.”

On Friday, March 8, the Red Wind Casino announced that only tribal and team member pay checks were able to be cashed, as the cashing system was still down.
