Letter: Mississippi Choctaws seeing record gaming revenue

Monday, April 11, 2011  

"In Gary Pettus' article on the upcoming election by the Mississippi Band of Choctaw Indians, Kevin Edwards criticizes Miko Beasley Denson and the Tribal achievements at Pearl River Resort.

Facts are facts. Pearl River Resort has achieved record levels of revenue and income over the last few months. This is because of how successful Bok Homa Casino has been and the conversion of the Golden Moon casino to the Arena at the Golden Moon.

Pearl River Resort is out performing every other casino in the state. Because we are doing so well, Pearl River Resort is continually hiring while many properties are reducing their work forces."
