Red Hawk Casino announced today that Paula S. of Sloughhouse, Calif. won $1 million during its Grand Opening celebration on January 22.
"The atmosphere during our Grand Opening celebration was absolutely electric," said Peter Fordham, General Manager of Red Hawk Casino. "At midnight, players gathered around the Stage Bar to see the announcement of the lucky winner. Paula even had the honor of being presented with the oversized $1million check by actor Erik Estrada, who participated in the Celebrity Charity Blackjack Tournament. The excitement will continue in the month of February with several exciting promotions and cash giveaways, including a drawing for a Porsche® Boxster."
In addition to Paula's life-changing win, two lucky Rewards Club members were also awarded cash prizes during Red Hawk Casino's Grand Opening event. JoAnn W. of Sacramento, Calif. won $10,000 and Hector M., also of Sacramento, won $5,000. The winning continued throughout January with two additional Rewards Club members winning a $250,000 jackpot and a $100,000 jackpot, respectively.
Throughout February, Red Hawk Rewards Club members will have more opportunities to win great prizes including more than $47,000 in cash drawings and a chance to win a brand new Porsche Boxster valued at $52,900.
