At first, the Federal government’s CARES Act seemed like it would provide enough funding to keep all the tribe’s essential departments afloat. Revenue from the Soboba Casino Resort funds all the tribe’s programs and services, from its public safety and public works departments to the reservation’s schools. Tribal Council members have been meeting continuously to gauge all the pros and cons to taking this next step. When the Soboba Band of Luiseño Indians made the decision to reopen its casino on May 27, it was not done lightly. While there is still concern about the coronavirus, measures have been implemented to provide heightened safety for all.
Golf courses reopened at the end of April and Soboba Springs Golf Course has had sold-out tee times since then.
As many businesses throughout Riverside County slowly start to reopen, there are a lot of residents that are relieved they can start enjoying past fun activities.
