The Kaw Nation has opened the first completely smoke-free casino in Oklahoma. The SouthWind Casino in Kaw City opened on April 6. The small facility offers 72 slot machines in a fresh atmosphere. “The first thing they do when they walk in the door is take a deep breath and say, ‘Ah, it smells so good in here,’ ” floor manager Cece Stevens told The Wichita Eagle of new customers. The tribe has no plans to go smoke-free at the larger SouthWind Casino in Newkirk. Get the Story:
