Each year, the Ontario Lottery and Gaming Corporation donates some money back into the community from the operation of Gateway Casinos in Dresden.
This year, OLG is giving $770,000 to Chatham-Kent to help offset costs of all municipally delivered services provided to residents.
“OLG is proud to be a vital part of Chatham-Kent for more than 17 years and we look forward to continuing to build on that support”, said Jake Pastore, OLG’s Director of Municipal and Community Relations. “We also appreciate the contribution of the employees of Gateway Casinos – Dresden in making life in Chatham-Kent that much richer.”
Chatham-Kent has received more than $11 million dollars since the Dresden Raceway opened in 2001.
