In 2022, SHIM received a Gaming Economic Development Tourism Fund (GEDTF) grant of $370,000, which is allowing us to address some long-standing concerns. The upgrades we are making are essential to create a more inclusive and welcoming space, aligning with ADA compliance standards, and ultimately enabling us to better serve our community.
