The Fort McDowell Yavapai Nation is hoping new projects will draw tourists to the reservation and keep them there.
The tribe is breaking ground tomorrow on a 247-room resort and 23,000-square-foot conference center that will open by October 2005. A neighboring recreational vehicle park is opening in October of this year.
The tribe operates a casino, a golf course and an outdoor cookout and Western entertainment venue.
