ONE IN THE NEWS

A recent syracuse.com story features the announcement of plans for Turning Stone Resort Casino’s largest expansion project in two decades. The multi-year project will nearly double the size of conference and convention space at Turning Stone, already one of the region’s largest conference venues. To support the additional conference guests and increased tourism, the expansion will also include a brand-new hotel with approximately 250 rooms, new dining options, outdoor spaces and other amenities. The construction will generate hundreds of jobs and the completed project will allow Oneida Nation Enterprises to boost its existing workforce with hundreds of new permanent jobs.

Oneida County Executive Delivers State of the County Address on Oneida Indian Nation Lands, Highlights Collaborative Partnership

On Wednesday, April 6, Oneida County Executive Tony Picente delivered his annual State of the County address on Oneida Indian Nation lands. It is the first time in New York history that a County Executive delivered a State of the County address on sovereign Indian lands. It was the utmost sign of respect by Tony Picente to the Oneida people, and a reflection of the uniquely collaborative relationship between the Oneida Indian Nation and Oneida County.

The event took place in the Shenandoah Clubhouse. It began with a video highlighting how much Central New York has benefited as a result of the special relationship between the Nation and Oneida County.
