Santa Ana Pueblo in New Mexico has revamped the non-smoking area at its casino. The 11,000 square-foot area at the Santa Ana Star Casino is now completely closed off from the smoking areas via floor-to-ceiling glass panels. There's also a new ventilation system, a separate entrance and a separate eatery. “Casinos tend to stick non-smokers in a separate room or a faraway corner in the back of the casino, but we did the opposite," general manager John Cirrincione said in a press release. "Our smoke-free area has an easy flow to and from the main casino floor so our guests can be a part of the action from wherever they are most comfortable.” The casino just celebrated its 21st anniversary.
