Gaming Company from Iowa Excited By Bid Win 

Peninsula Gaming LLC is thrilled to be on the receiving end of a contract to develop a new slot machine casino near Wichita in Kansas. The Iowa based company said that they would have it completed in five years and would have slot machines, a world class equine facility, gaming tables and a hotel – so that they would be able to meet the needs of everyone who might want to come visit them.  The state owned slot machine casino will be located near Mulvane and will have plenty to offer folks – including dining and entertainment options. 

The state will receive 22% of the profits from the slot machine casino and commissioners said that the reason they chose Peninsula over the other bids was that their location was so close to Wichita – they felt that the casino had the ability to make much more money. The other company that they were competing against for the slot machine license was Global Gaming Solutions and they were out of Ada, Oklahoma – they wanted to locate it about 32 miles from Wichita, while the other was closer to 18 miles outside of the city.  

The company now has to undergo a complete background check of all of their employees and officers to ensure that there are no felons or criminals in their employ which would negate their getting the slot machine license. Two of their executive employees were charged with misdemeanors stemming from political campaign contributions, but they have already said that if Peninsula was chosen that they would leave the company so as to not ruin their chances of getting the slot machine license.
