Washoe Tribe Purchases Wa She Shu Casino
The Washoe Tribe has announced its acquisition of the Wa She Shu Casino from Wind Creek Hospitality, who has operated the location since its opening in 2016. The Washoe Development Corp., the independent business arm of the Tribe, will take charge of the casino and truck stop on July 1.
Business Opportunities for the Tribe
Located on the same parcel as the Wa She Shu Travel Plaza along Highway 395, the 15,000-square-feet commercial building offers significant business opportunities for the Washoe Tribe. The Washoe Development Corp. is currently reviewing options with the Washoe Tribal Council for its future use.
