Thank you, Grand Island Independent! Some common sense for every Nebraskan who is believing the lies being spread by the opposition of an "Indian Casino" being on every corner, near churches and schools:
"Opponents of the citizen initiatives on the Nov. 3 ballot have claimed that their passage will mean casinos could be built in every county in Nebraska. But that hasnโt happened in Iowa and it wonโt happen here, specifically because one of the initiatives is a constitutional amendment that only authorizes casinos at horse racetracks."
FACT: Tribes in Nebraska ALREADY have casinos on their reservations...as well as in Iowa and Kansas. Iowa, with over 1.2 million MORE people STILL only has 4 "Indian Casinos" in their state and gambling has been legal since the early '90s. So, not exactly the takeover the opponents are claiming will happen.
Vote FOR 429-430-431. It's time to make the Good life even better.
https://theindependent.com/opinion/editorial/casino-gambling-will-be-good-for-grand-island/article_b9423d9a-1683-11eb-8d0e-4f441582db4f.html
Thank you for such wonderful and supportive responses. To clarify the remark about WHEN casino gaming would appear at Fonner Park, the intent of the Chris Kotulak quote is that casino gaming would not appear "until into" next year. Meaning sometime in 2021. Hopefully that clarifies any confusion.

This morning a customer called and mentioned that they needed tables on the floor for a group of eight and said they had just been to the HAIRBALL show in Kansas last weekend and had a great time. The customer said our ticketing set up is very similar to what was done in Kansas, and they were buying their second table today. Mask Up & Rock On! Buy your tickets today.

FONNER IS SAFER AND FRESHER
February 4, 2021
Dear Fonner Park Race Fans, Horsemen and Employees,
Despite what State DHMs may be issued, there will be a 75% capacity seating format for all interior sections as we start our 2021 season on February 19th. Fonner Park will adhere to mask/face covering and social distancing requirements until further notice. Masks will be required (but not provided) to enter and must be worn when not seated. ๐ฌ๐ผ๐ ๐บ๐๐๐ ๐๐ฒ๐ฎ๐ฟ ๐ฎ ๐บ๐ฎ๐๐ธ ๐๐ป๐น๐ฒ๐๐ ๐๐ผ๐ ๐ฎ๐ฟ๐ฒ ๐๐ฒ๐ฎ๐๐ฒ๐ฑ ๐ผ๐ฟ ๐ฎ๐ฟ๐ฒ ๐ฑ๐ฟ๐ถ๐ป๐ธ๐ถ๐ป๐ด/๐ฒ๐ฎ๐๐ถ๐ป๐ด. Guests will be asked to kindly keep a proper distance from others when standing in a service line. Many plastic shields have been installed at the mutuel windows, keno writers and concession stands. Please refer to previous posts on ๐ณ๐ผ๐ป๐ป๐ฒ๐ฟ๐ฝ๐ฎ๐ฟ๐ธ.๐ฐ๐ผ๐บ for an explanation of our seating plan in the: Clubhouse, Turf Club, Skyline, Mezzanine and Concourse sections.
Jerryโs Sheetmetal Heating & Air has provided steep discounts on four 15-ton RTUs and a Venmar Fresh Air System. A new GPS Ionization feature has been added to all the HVAC systems in the Clubhouse, Turf Club and Keno/Finish Line Lounge to insure clean healthy air throughout those areas. Guests and employees are now in a much safer interior environment to work, eat and enjoy themselves. Please be sure to extend a grateful and sincere
Thank You to Monte Hehnke (Jerry's Heat & Air) when you see him.
There will be much publicity should we advance to 100% capacity before the end of the 2021 season; however, until then, this is our plan to contribute to and respect our community of Fonner Park, Grand Island and Central Nebraska.
โI am committed to making Fonner Park the safest environment possible for both our guests, my employees and the horsemen. Confidence is an important factor in hospitality and I want everyone who enters our facility to know their welfare is my paramount consideration,โ said Fonner Park CEO Chris Kotulak. โWe are not out of the woods yet with this pandemic and we certainly donโt want to step backwards.โ
I am hopeful that most will have an open mind in understanding the cause of this necessary inconvenience. As a reminder, the COVID-19 pandemic, and our social expectations, regulations, and responsible community practices, is the cause.
Please continue to utilize fonnerpark.com for NEWS & UPDATES and HEALTH & SAFETY guidelines.

DEAR GUESTS: The Grand Island city mask ordinance will expire on February 23. However, Fonner Park and Heartland Events Center will maintain our mask mandate until further notice. We take our role in the community seriously and want to continue to offer a level of confidence for all who use our facility. With cooperation we are hopeful that our policy might only last for a few weeks more. This is surely better than a few more months of masks, or even worse, a setback. Please always go to www.fonnerpark.com for current news & updates. Thank You! Please read this link... https://fonnerpark.com/2021/02/no-change-in-fonner-mask-policy/

Just another Fon Saturday at the races. Come join us! Masks mandatory unless seated with food or drink - or unless posing for a photo. ;)
Due to the rain that fell during the races Saturday, the heavy overnight rain, and the current rain and high wind conditions, for the safety of the horses and jockeys, Fonner Park racing for Sunday, March 14th has been cancelled. Much of Central Nebraska this morning is surrounded by what looks like a giant puddle or pond.
Our Finish Line Lounge and simulcast facility remains open for nationwide simulcasting and keno.
Contact the Fonner Park admin office for an exchange date for any advanced/daily seating sales for March 14, 2021.
