YUMA - Construction of the new Quechan Casino Resort is now 65 percent complete. It is located off Interstate 8 at the Algodones exit six miles west of Yuma and halfway between San Diego and Phoenix.

The 297,0000-square-foot resort will cost $200 million to build. When finished, the current California Paradise Casino will be converted into a community center for tribal members. The Arizona Paradise Casino will remain open.

Tribal president Mike Jackson Sr. said, "It will be beautiful," Jackson said of the resort, "and it's state of the art. It's not just a casino but an entertainment center. It will be the first of its kind in Yuma and Imperial counties. I know people are looking for something to do. I invite people to come and enjoy it."

Felix Montague, chairman of the Quechan construction committee, said, "I feel this project has been one of the most challenging we've faced. I want to thank our grandfathers for their persistence in fighting for these lands. This project is a hallmark of economic development by the tribe. It will be a lifeline for our future generations."
