Morongo Casino, Resort & Spa Introduces New Bingo Hall

Cabazon, Cal­i­for­nia (Decem­ber 21, 2010) – The Morongo Casino Resort & Spa will now be filled with calls of “Bingo” with the relo­ca­tion of the “Casino Morongo Bingo Hall” to the main casino floor.  Now located inside the AAA Four Dia­mond resort, the new bingo hall seats up to 300 play­ers and offers Early Bird Games and VIP Mem­ber Promotions.

“Relo­cat­ing the bingo hall to the main casino floor allows us to bet­ter serve our play­ers,” said David Brents, Gen­eral Man­ager of Morongo Casino, Resort & Spa.  “By plac­ing the bingo hall under the same roof as our world-class ameni­ties, we pro­vide our play­ers with the added con­ve­nience of stay­ing, play­ing and din­ing with­out hav­ing to leave the building.”

The new hall fea­tures state of the art 19” elec­tronic bingo screens with picture-in-picture tech­nol­ogy that allows play­ers to watch TV as they play.  “We are offer­ing the newest and most inno­v­a­tive tech­nol­ogy to keep our bingo play­ers in a fun and enter­tain­ing venue,” Brents added.

The move comes nearly 30 years after Morongo opened as a hum­ble bingo gam­ing hall in 1983.  In 2004, Morongo Casino, Resort and Spa, as we know it today, opened with a new casino, hotel, spa, restau­rants, con­fer­ence cen­ter and pool com­plex, but the bingo hall remained a sep­a­rate facil­ity located next to Morongo’s Canyon Lanes Bowl­ing Alley.  Now guests can find the hall next to Mys­tique Lounge inside the casino.

Open seven days a week, the Bingo Hall will pro­vide pack sales begin­ning at 2:30 p.m. Mon­day through Sat­ur­day with the first “Early Bird” game at 6 p.m.  And, on Sun­day, pack sales open at 11 a.m. with the first “Early Bird” game at 6 p.m.  Early Bird Games cost $250 with reg­u­lar ses­sion games rang­ing from $500 to $1,000.  The new hall will also fea­ture VIP Mem­ber Pro­mo­tions includ­ing “Hol­i­day Cash & Free Play Nights,” “Fri­day Night Birth­day Cel­e­bra­tions,” and “Sun­day After­noon Free Play Giveaways.”

“This Jan­u­ary, Morongo bingo play­ers will be intro­duced to a mati­nee pro­gram on Tues­days and Thurs­days that will offer them a Bingo & Potrero Canyon Buf­fet Lunch pack­age,” said Barry Con­nolly, Direc­tor of Morongo Bingo Oper­a­tions.  “Play­ers that have played with us through out the years since the 1980s will truly appre­ci­ate their new gam­ing expe­ri­ence.  Not only are they able to play bingo, but they now have all of the ameni­ties in one place that offers an expe­ri­ence like no other casino offers,” Connolly added.

Morongo is one of the largest tribal gam­ing facil­i­ties in the nation.  The resort pro­vides hotel, casino, din­ing, enter­tain­ment, and spa ser­vices.  Recently, the prop­erty earned its sixth con­sec­u­tive AAA Four Dia­mond Award.  Gam­ing enthu­si­asts will find their fill with more than 2,000 slot machines, a 22-table poker room and 85 table games fea­tur­ing Pai-Gow Poker, EZ Bac­carat and Black­jack, among others.
