In December of last year, the Potawatomi Carter Hotel Casino suffered a catastrophic flood due to a sprinkler system malfunction. This created a situation in which the hotel wing had to be completely renovated. Today, after months of work, the hotel is now open to the public once again.
The Forest County Potawatomi tribal community held a ribbon cutting ceremony to mark the occasion with Ned Daniels Jr., Forest County Potawatomi Chairman, saying the grand re-opening is a significant chapter in the facility’s 30 year history. “At the end of the last year our hotel was hit with a challenging situation but through the community, the tribal people and casino leader support we are here today to celebrate,” said Daniels Jr.
