Guest speakers from Gateway Casinos and BCLC are scheduled to attend the Delta Chamber of Commerce’s next luncheon.
“They will outline how gaming works in the province of B.C. and describe their vision for gaming and entertainment in your community,” according to the chamber website. “Learn about the proposed $70 million investment, increased employment opportunities and the auxiliary benefits to the local economy and community.”

The luncheon is scheduled for Wednesday, Jan. 24 from 11:30 a.m. to 1:30 p.m. at the Delta Town & Country Inn. The cost is $35 for members and $45 for non-members. Register at deltachamber.ca.
