OKC Major League (http://www.okcmajorleague.com/index.html)
On Jan. 22, 2008, the Shawnee Tribe filed formal papers to put 104 acres of land in northeast Oklahoma City into federal trust for the development of a $400 million, high-quality destination entertainment resort.
Plans for the resort include: an 18-story, 400-room upscale hotel, a luxurious spa and salon, an outstanding array of the country’s best-known restaurants and shops, a casino, a 2,400-seat performance hall, a cinema, a bowling center and other high quality features.
This is an important project for Oklahoma City, and the Shawnee Tribe, that will have an immediate, positive impact in a wide range of areas. The destination resort will:
* Generate a multimillion-dollar economic boost for Oklahoma City
* Create thousands of local jobs with competitive salaries and benefits
* Provide a consistent source of new revenue for local and state governments
* Broaden the variety of local entertainment options
* Increase the appeal of Adventure District attractions for out-of-state residents
* Attract more young, creative professionals to Oklahoma City
* Support local schools, non-profit organizations and infrastructure needs in surrounding communities
* Enable the Shawnee Tribe to provide vital programs and services for its members
