Roundtable Discussion: Reopening Tribal Casinos & Pandemic Recovery

The TribalHub Podcast

We're back and excited for our first podcast in a while!! Listen in as Mike Day (Founder & Executive Officer, TribalHub) and I talk with two high level leaders from two casinos in two different parts of the country. John Filippe, Executive Director of MIS for the Quinault Beach Resort & Casino in Washington and Dawn McGrady, CFO for the Little River Resort and Casino in Michigan. They open up and discuss what their tribal casinos are facing right now - from deep cleaning and remote work desks, to changes in customer base and lack of certain services. This conversation helps us try to get a pulse on the industry as we have begun to reopen our tribal facilities.

We are all working to get back to our new normal. It's going to be different, and things are going to change! Are you ready?
