UPPER LAKE, CA-Running Creek Casino, a 33,000-square-foot casino here that is an enterprise of the Habematolel Pomo of Upper Lake, has opened. Running Creek’s official grand opening is set for this Friday, but the Tribe and project management team made the decision in response to popular demand to open the casino on May 25, just in time for the Memorial Day holiday weekend. The long-awaited casino, which houses 349 slot machines and six popular table games, was built by Kitchell in an innovative Sprung structure at 635 E. Highway 20 in a region that has long been a mecca for campers, hikers, nature lovers and water-sports enthusiasts.

 “The high-performance fabric and reliability of Sprung structures make them an ideal solution for many gaming and entertainment enterprises, and we’re seeing more interest in them,” says Brad Gabel, VP of Kitchell’s Native American division. “They can handle high capacity, accommodate multiple uses and are less expensive than traditional building while maintaining a high aesthetic standard.”
