Osages on the Move
January 5, 2013
Dozers, great earth moving machines, large drainage pipes, and more are over what looks like a mile of space along the highway going into Ponca City from Osage county. This is the activity to usher in the new Osage Casino. The Osage News tells there will be 1. a New Casino 2. A pub/Sports Bar, 3. Table Games 4. Expanded Electronic Gaming Floor 5. Hotel, 6. Fitness Center 6. Business Center 7. Outdoor Pool and Spa 8. Grab and Go Coffee Bar 9. Conference Center 10. Banquet and Event Catering 11. Convenience Store with Gas Pumps. The back page of the Osage News shows an artist’s rendition of the projected finished building and it looks to be of a great size.
The December Osage News front page picture is of President Obama shaking hands with the late Eloise Cobell. There are stories of folks who have and have not received their share of the latent oil royalties from the law suit Eloise Cobell fought through to the end only to die before the money was paid out.
Our family did not receive a payment which was a disappointment to me. I went ahead and bought Rhonda a sauna
believing the Cobell lawsuit money would pay that off. Oh well, Rhonda is enjoying it and her circulation has greatly improved even though the payments have made a hole in my budget.
And that’s the bit of news here at the edge of the Osage Reservation, and that’s the truth, (raspberries via that famous comedienne, Lily Tomlin).
