Column: Tuolumne Band opens casino expansion

"More parking, more gaming, less smoke.

Earlier this month the Black Oak Casino unveiled its new 1,000-space parking garage and larger smoke-free gaming area.

The six-level parking garage doubles the Tuolumne casino's parking capacity.

Glass elevators take guests from all levels of the garage to the Skywalk Gaming Area, which connects to the main gaming floor.

The Skywalk is a 15,000-square-foot nonsmoking wing. It has a six-table poker room, new slot tournament area and the Jumping Coyote Espresso and Coffee Bar.

Construction on the project took nearly a year."
