Representatives from the Ho-Chunk Nation, the City of Beloit and Visit Beloit released new renderings of the planned casino, which is currently under development.
In May of 2022, The Bureau of Indian Affairs gave its approval to place the proposed casino on 33 acres of land, for the Ho-Chuck Nation.
The decision allowed the tribe to move forward with the final design, infrastructure work and construction.
At the time, Vice President Karena Thundercloud told 13 WREX, “The nation, our partners, and this community have been anticipating this moment for years. There’s been some skepticism about the timeline because of the nation’s reliance on the federal processes but we’ve been confident in the project’s viability and look forward to a bright future for Beloit, the state of Wisconsin, and the Ho-Chunk Nation.”
