Pennsylvania Gaming Control Board for final release next week of class 3: the game of state license. One of the applicants having a problem with the advertising campaign is approaching its opposition to the vote of the government.

One proposal is to build a casino Nemacolin Woodlands Resort Fayette County, one of the Poconos casinos in Monroe County, one third of the candidates; desires Resort Casino in Harrisburg, and a fourth, which made the audience is closer Mason Dixon Resorts, which set up a casino at Gettysburg in Adams County. Opponents of the proposal Mason Dixon is running an advertising campaign in which the historian Ken Burns, who says this about the placing of a casino (Gettysburg), the battlefield is profane.

However, Mason Dixon, spokesman David Latorre said opponents are trying to make a moving appeal…… They are not a single inch of the battlefield. We are located in the town of Cumberland in an existing station that was open for 40 years. We could not build a new structure. We are renovating an existing structure to include the casino. You can’t see our station on the battlefield.

LaTorre said they have community support of the Chamber of Commerce, 200 enterprises and large-heritage tourism business. Latorre said there are two casinos in the Pittsburgh area and a casino and racino in the Poconos. We (Mason Dixon) sitting on the largest untapped (gambling) market. The Gaming Control Board could decide on 16 December or wait until its January meeting.
