Arizona tribes continue to see growth in their gaming revenues.
Tribes shared $25.6 million with the state for the quarter that ended September 30, the Arizona Department of Gaming
reported. That's 6.5 percent more than the same period last year.
The increase also marks the fourth consecutive quarter of growth.
The tribes are rebounding following the national economic recession.
Since 2004, tribes have shared more than $1.1 billion in revenues with the state and local communities.
