FLORENCE, OR – Three Rivers Casino Resort is celebrating its 20th anniversary. Established and operated by the Confederated Tribes of Coos, Lower Umpqua and Siuslaw Indians, the casino thrives as an entertainment destination, significantly contributing to the local economy and charitable initiatives.
Since its opening, Three Rivers Casino Resort has remained dedicated to fostering community growth and well-being. As one of the largest employers in the region, the casino provides invaluable resources and employment opportunities.
“Three Rivers Casino is very welcoming and rewarding,” said Jesse Gardner, Director of Facilities, a 20-year employee and tribal member. “Everyone is given the opportunity to grow. My responsibilities have empowered me to become a better person and director daily.”
As part of its 20-year celebration, team members gathered for a roaring 20s celebration. “I feel like I have lifelong friends that are like family; this includes team members and guests,” said Teresa Spangler, Director of Guest Services. “Our goal is to create an environment you want to work in, and we have a lot of different areas for our team members to find their passion.” Spangler has worked with the casino since its inception and is also a member of the Confederated Tribes.
Over the last two decades, the Three Rivers Foundation has awarded millions of dollars to hundreds of non-profits in Western Oregon, including those in healthcare, education, food security and law enforcement. The foundation remains committed to its mission of community enrichment, economic growth and cultural preservation.
