A grand opening celebration for Sky River will take place next month.
We felt comfortable and didn’t see any reason to delay the opening,” Boyd spokesman David Strow said Monday. “We completed construction early and completed the prep work for the opening. 16, the casino’s Facebook page carried the message, “Psst…you up? We’re open.” The post showed an image of active slot machines.īoyd Gaming, which built and will operate the casino for the tribe through a seven-year management contract, did not put out a press release or file a statement with the Securities and Exchange Commission announcing the opening. The Sky River Casino in the capital city’s suburb of Elk Grove was scheduled to open in mid-September. Boyd Gaming and the Wilton Rancheria Tribe quietly opened a $500 million casino near Sacramento last week with neither fanfare nor a grand opening celebration.
