Some casinos in Michigan will shut down for three weeks beginning Wednesday due to a new statewide public health order.

FireKeepers Casino Hotel in Battle Creek won't be among them.

FireKeepers is owned and operated by the Nottawaseppi Huron Band of the Potawatomi. As one of 24 American Indian tribal casinos in Michigan owned by federally recognized sovereign nations and governed by the National Indian Gaming Commission, they do not fall under the jurisdiction of the Michigan Department of Health and Human Services order announced on Sunday.

Under the new order, all Michigan high schools must move to remote learning, indoor dining has been shut down and people are mandated to work from home unless it's impossible to do so until at least Dec. 9. The order, aimed at limiting indoor social gatherings that health officials say contribute to the spread of COVID-19, also temporarily shuts down Detroit's three casinos.

'FireKeepers focus, since our June 1 reopening, is the protection of our guests and our 1,800 team members,' FireKeepers CEO Kathy George said in a release on Monday. 'We reopened under strict protocols designed to ensure that FireKeepers' business operations are not contributing to the spread of the COVID-19 virus.

'We are confident that the recent significant increase in the number of positive COVID-19 cases is not being influenced by FireKeepers’ operations because of the mitigation steps we have taken and which we continue to rigorously enforce. As a critical infrastructure of the Nottawaseppi Huron Band of the Potawatomi, FireKeepers will, for the time being, continue to operate under these strict protocols, but we will continue to vigilantly review these protocols in cooperation with health officials and the Tribe’s Gaming Regulators to determine if additional controls or actions are needed to support the effort to slow down the spread of this virus.'

According to the Centers for Disease Control, the virus that causes COVID-19 is primarily spread by respiratory droplets released when an infected person talks, coughs, or sneezes.

FireKeepers has added a number of protocols including limits on the number of customers to no more than 20% of building occupancy; a ban on smoking on the property; reducing the number of gaming positions; prohibiting patrons from gathering on the gaming floor; and the temporary elimination of valet parking, hand-dealt poker, bingo and buffet dining.

FireKeepers, which has 1,800 employees, voluntarily closed amid the first statewide shutdown from March 16 until June 1. It was recently announced the casino will close to the public on New Year's Eve, from 3 p.m. on Dec. 31 until 7 a.m. on Jan. 1, 2021.

According to a report by the Upjohn Institute for Employment Research, FireKeepers Casino Hotel has added $443 million in sales and $65 million in personal income to Calhoun County during the last decade.

July 23, 2018

An additional tower for the hotel is being planned at the FireKeepers Casino Hotel in Battle Creek.

The hotel opened in late 2012. It currently offers 243 guest rooms.

FireKeepers is owned and operated by the Nottawaseppi Huron Band of the Potawatomi. The tribe decided it was time to add more guest rooms to meet the demand. As of now the limited amount of guest rooms cannot accommodate the requests for groups.

An additional hotel tower will allow for the creation of space for events and meetings. This amenity will help attract more guests to the area and boost tourism.

When the original hotel tower was opened, adding another tower in the future was already a conversation. However, the official planning did not happen until earlier this year.

Many of the official design details and amenities have not been publicly released. The cost of the project has not been announced. Nor has information for how many new jobs will be created.

As of now the new hotel tower will consist of 200 guest rooms. Bringing the total amount of rooms on the property to 443. Another dining venue could be added. Also, spaces to accommodate larger meetings and events.

The date for the ground breaking has not been released as of yet.

Construction contractors and design architects are being chosen for the hotel project.
