Soft opening for Northern Arapaho Tribe's casino

The Northern Arapaho Tribe of Wyoming held a soft opening on Tuesday for the Wind River Casino in Riverton.

The 45,000-square-foot casino features gift shop, restaurant, cafe conference and VIP room. It employs over 425 people on the Wind River Reservation.

The tribe won the right to offer Class III games through a court decision. The state was found to be negotiating in bad faith.

The grand opening ceremony for the casino takes place June 5.
