Officials at Mohegan Sun at Pocono Downs issued a release Monday stating it has scheduled Tuesday, Nov. 14, as the grand opening date for 1,083 slot machines in its Phase One facility. The date is still pending receipt of all approvals by the Pennsylvania Gaming Control Board.

"This is the culmination of a pledge to this region by the Mohegan Tribal Gaming Authority and our dedicated management team and staff," said Robert Soper, chief executive officer for the project. "We have hired over 400 people, including many local residents and there is overwhelming positive anticipation from the Northeast Pennsylvania region regarding our opening."

The first slot machine in Pennsylvania actually arrived at Pocono Downs Monday. Phase One of the casino project features two floors housing slot machines, a food court, bar and patio. An additional third floor will be used for office space.

A Phase Two gaming and entertainment facility will be developed on land adjacent to the initial gaming location. This will include an additional 2,000 slot machines, and also include restaurants, buffet, food court, retail space and a nightclub.
