JAMUL, Calif., Oct. 6, 2021 /PRNewswire/ -- After launching in October 2016, Jamul Casino will mark its fifth (5^th) anniversary this month as a recognized gaming industry leader.  In its short existence, the Casino has achieved a number of significant milestones, including a management transition, re-branding, new signature amenities, and more.  The Casino will celebrate its successes over its first five years with a number of public and private events on October 8 and 9, 2021.  With free food, live entertainment, and thousands of dollars' worth of giveaways, the 5^th Anniversary Celebration will offer specially curated excitement for Casino guests.

Casino Milestones
Since its opening in October 2016, Jamul Casino has celebrated a number of major achievements on its path to success:

• In May 2018, the Jamul Indian Village assumed management of the Casino.  This significant transition meant new leadership and a rebranding inspired by the Tribe's focus on being genuinely generous, friendly, fun, and true to its roots. 
• In February 2019, Jamul Casino opened its Poker Room.  Many of the game's greatest players such as poker pro Tiffany Michelle and local celebrities like Charlie Joiner, Rollie Fingers, and Jim Laslavic have competed in the Poker Room.  Since its opening, millions of dollars have been awarded to Jamul Casino's poker champs.
• In May 2020, after closing due to the COVID-19 pandemic and spending countless hours developing procedures that met or exceeded all guidance from state and local health officials, Jamul Casino became one of the first casinos in the nation and the second in California to re-open.  Jamul Casino's protocols became THE gold standard in industry best practices for COVID safety.
• In July 2020, Jamul Casino opened The Rooftop, and became one of East County's top destinations for weddings and events. 
• And continuing into 2021, Jamul Casino continues to improve its standing as the best place in San Diego for gaming entertainment with property improvements such as new carpet, a redesigned Marketplace, and enhancements to its High Limit and Poker Rooms on the way.

5^th Anniversary Events Open to the Public
