Casino

After reading the article in today's paper, I have a couple of questions to pose. First, the Globe reported that Boot Hill Gaming is a subsidiary of Boot Hill Museum. Therefore, it too would need to be a not-for-profit operation. However, aren't casinos supposed to make money, specifically for their investors? To me, it appears that Boot Hill would own the facility. And doesn't the City of Dodge own the museum? If that's the case, then wouldn't the citizens of Dodge own the casino since we are the ones that pay for Boot Hill? I'm just confused about it as it doesn't make sense. (And perhaps that's the way they want it?)

Secondly, they want to build it northwest of Wright Park? I swear, people just do not listen to us taxpayers. They're going to ram the Wright Park down our throats as the "ideal location" until we have no more Wright Park land left. Because we all know that once we build the casino there, it'll only make sense to build the SEC there too! Sorry for the rant so early in the morning...
