The Cherokee Nation of Oklahoma named a new manager for one of its gaming facilities.

Tony Nagy, a tribal member, has worked for Cherokee Nation Entertainment since 2007. He's risen through the ranks to become general manager of the Cherokee Casino & Hotel West Siloam Springs.

"I am honored to work for my tribe in a business that I have grown to love," Nagy said in a press release, The Grand Lake News reported. "We are excited for what the future holds for this casino and Cherokee Nation as a whole.”

The facility, which is located near the Arkansas border, debuted a $125 million expansion in 2010.
