Island of Timber - Menominee Casino Resort
Lunch } Island of Timber } The Menominee Forest has been described as an island of timber in an ocean of clear land. The Menominee have inhabited North Eastern Wisconsin and part of Michigan’s Upper Peninsula for thousands of years. The ancestral tribal lands encompassed over 15 million acres. The current Menominee Reservation boundaries, containing 235,000 acres were established in 1854 following several treaties and land cessions. The Menominee forest is one of the oldest managed large forest tracts in the United States. In the last 150 years the forest contains more volume than when it started in 1854. It has harvested 2.5 billion board feet. In other words, they have cut the forest 2.5 times in volume in the last 150 years and still have more volume than when they started with large trees still remaining. The story of how this quarter million acre remnant of once vast forest biome persists is of culture, wisdom, and commitment to a place with vigilance and restraint being applied. MENOMINEE CASINO RESORT M j Through the Years i enominee Casino Resort in Keshena, owned and operated by the Menominee Indian Tribe of Wisconsin, began as a simple bingo hall back in 1982. After the addition of the Las Vegas-style casino in 1987, the casino expanded again throughout the 1990’s with the inclusion of a 100-room hotel and the Forest Island Restaurant. Today, the resort boasts a 33,000 sq. ft. casino space containing more than 850 slot machines, 8 poker tables and 11 table games that include roulette, craps, blackjack, Three Card poker and Ultimate Texas Hold’em. More recently, the casino-resort spent 15 months adding even more onto its facility. In addition to remodeling and building more hotel rooms, the resort expanded by building a 13,000 sq. ft. Convention Center that includes a 121,000 gallon swimming pool, whirlpool, steam room, cabana bar and a fitness center in the expansion. The logo of Menominee Casino Resort has evolved from its simple beginning in 1987 to our most resent branding in 2010 to continue use of the large “M” with wild rice depicting the feel of Earth, Water, Wild Rice and Sky. “Menominee” centered large beneath “M” with accent of water in “O”. “Casino Resort” centered smaller underneath “Menominee”. Menominee Casino Resort continues to be the place “Where winning comes naturally, and often.” Appet izers 1 2 3 4 5 Cheesy Chicken Quesadilla Pesto Parmesan Flat Bread................. $3.99 Crispy Potato Skins............................. $2.79 Maryland Crab Cakes......................... $7.99 Chicken Tenders.................................. $6.29 Con Queso Cheese Sticks............... …$6.99 Fried White Cheddar Cheese Curds... $4.59 Crispy flat bread topped with basil pesto and a generous amount of Parmesan cheese.
