Construction began this week on $5 million in renovations to Casino Moose Jaw.
These are the first extensive renovations at Casino Moose Jaw since the facility’s grand opening in 2002.
“The planned upgrades at Casino Moose Jaw are significant, and we expect that facility will have a first-class gaming atmosphere with enhanced amenities once the renovations are complete,” SaskGaming president and CEO Susan Flett said in a news release.
Upgrades will focus on the gaming and food and beverage areas at the casino and will include enhancements to the lighting, carpet and floorplan.
Renovations will begin in the northwest corner of the casino with the construction of new customer service and “GameSense” (responsible gambling support and information) areas.
The casino is expected to remain open throughout the renovation process, which is expected to be complete early next year.
The Casino Moose Jaw renovation follows the completion of more than $20 million in renovations at Casino Regina over the past four years.
