Casino Del Sol and Casino of the Sun will remain closed until 13 May

The Pascua Yaqui Tribe announced today that Casino Del Sol and Casino of the Sun in Tucson, Arizona will remain closed until 13 May.

Here is the announcement from the website:

As we continue to navigate the evolving situation surrounding the coronavirus (COVID-19), the Pascua Yaqui Tribe and Casino Del Sol have made the decision to temporarily close both Casino Del Sol and Casino of the Sun beginning Wednesday, March 18 at 5:00 p.m. through Wednesday, May 13 at 8:00 a.m. This closure will include Casino Del Sol, Casino of the Sun, the Resort, Estrella at Casino Del Sol and AVA Amphitheater. Sewailo Golf Club re-opened on Monday, April 20.

We are taking these steps because our priority (our community) is our team members, our guests, and the wider community of Tucson, Southern Arizona, and the State of Arizona. We believe that by doing this we will help to reduce the impact of the virus in our community, and that makes this the right thing to do.

During this time Casino Del Sol will compensate our team members without requiring them to use their paid time off. We are recommending to team members that while the properties are closed, they should follow the guidance of the Centers for Disease Control (CDC) and public health experts regarding social distancing and avoiding crowds, keeping in mind that that guidance may also change and evolve over time.

The Pascua Yaqui Tribe and Casino Del Sol will continue to closely monitor the situation and will keep you updated on our plans moving forward, should they change.

We appreciate your support, and we appreciate you. We look forward to seeing you in a few weeks.

Sincerely,
Kimberly Van Amburg?Chief Executive Officer?Casino Del Sol
