Kewadin Casinos reopen this week
The Tribe shut down its locations earlier this month due to a cyber incident.
Key Points
- All three destinations will be open again by March 3
- The Tribe said there is no danger in using credit cards at its casinos
The Sault Ste. Marie Tribe of Chippewa Indians has reopened Kewadin Casinos, following a cyber incident earlier this month.
Kewadin Casinos will welcome back patrons at all three locations this week. The group said it had to temporarily close its casinos because of a cyber incident that began February 9.
The Tribe said it “acted immediately to shut down its systems to prevent any further harm,” cooperated with local law enforcement and engaged with legal and cyber security experts.
“All casino hotels, restaurants and entertainment will resume their normal business hours when the casino reopens Wednesday at noon,” the Tribe said in a statement and added, “It’s safe to use credit cards at the casino.”
Sault Tribe Chairman Austin Lowes commented, “Some Tribal organizations were impacted more severely than others and are still recovering, but we’re fortunate to be able to reopen Kewadin’s doors and continue serving as a prime entertainment destination for the eastern UP.
“To our guests who were unable to visit us during this time, I am very sorry for the inconvenience this has caused. Our team worked with outside cybersecurity experts around the clock to make the necessary steps to strengthen and enhance our IT systems, and we are open and ready for business.”
Kewadin Casino Sault Ste Marie will reopen today at noon, while the Kewadin Casino St. Ignace and Kewadin Casinos Manistique, Christmas and Hessel locations will welcome back guests on February 28 and March 3 respectively.
