The Eastern Shawnee Tribe of Oklahoma announced a new name for its expanded casino.

The tribe is increasing the size of the Bordertown Casino and adding a 117-room hotel. Along with the changes comes a new name for the facility -- the Indigo Sky Casino.

Chief Glenna Wallace said the name reflects the tribe's connection to Tecumseh, who was born on a starry night in 1768. The logo features a panther and a swan, two important Shawnee symbols.

The new casino is set to debut in September.
