Kewadin Casinos 25th Anniversary

Kewadin Festival Celebrates 25^th Anniversary 

Sault Ste. Marie, Mich. – Kewadin is known for its amazing outdoor concerts, but this year, we’re taking that to a whole new level with the Kewadin Casinos 25th Anniversary Summer Festival July 22-24, 2010. 

“The festival is going to be an incredible three day event with non stop entertainment, activities, great food and fun,” said Alan Bouschor, Kewadin’s VP of Marketing and Sales.  “Not only will we have a national entertainer each night of the festival, we’ll have live entertainment throughout the festival.”  Local and MySpace bands along with acts like DJ Chef and food eating competitions will be on location throughout the event.

Complete details are still in the works and will be announced soon.  The three day event will be held at the casino’s Sault Ste. Marie location from noon – 10 p.m. each day and will feature daily national entertainment, special appearances, fireworks, simulator games, food, beer tent and much more.

Organizers plan the event celebration of the casino’s 25^th Anniversary but hope to continue it as an annual event.  “Depending on how the festival goes over, we may consider having it annually,” said Bouschor.

When Kewadin Casinos opened in November 1985, it was a one-room blackjack house with 80 employees.  Now, the casinos have 86,000 square feet of gaming space with 2,000 slot machines and 50 table games. The casinos have more than 500,000 square feet of facility space with seven restaurants and delis, two on-site hotels, a 25,000-square-foot convention facility, eight lounges, and four gift shops.

More information on the festival will be posted on the casino’s web site (www.kewdin.com), facebook and twitter pages.
