The Santee Sioux Tribe of Nebraska will be opening a golf course at its casino next year. The 18-hole Tatanka Golf Club at the Ohiya Casino was developed by famed designer Paul Albanese. Each hole tells a different story in the tribe's culture -- the beaver, the trickster and the white buffalo are all featured.

"We took the history and the culture of the area and the Sioux Nation, and used it as a design inspiration in a subtle and respectful way," Albanese said in a press release. An opening date hasn't been announced. But the casino just posted a job notice for a general manager for the new course. "The general manger is responsible for the operation of the seasonal golf course and year-round clubhouse operation: physical & financial," the notice states. Get the Story:
