Tribe says casino is not an option, but bingo parlor is

SHABBONA - A leader of a Kansas-based American Indian tribe said Tuesday that the tribe is planning a town-hall-style meeting next week in Shabbona to &#8220dispel any myths” residents may have about the tribe's intentions for 128 acres it recently purchased outside of town. Prairie Band Potawatomi Nation Tribal Chairwoman Tracy Stanhoff also acknowledged that while a &#8220Las Vegas-style” casino on the land is not one of the options being considered, a bingo parlor is. Stanhoff said next week's meeting is likely to happen at the Indian Oaks Country Club in Shabbona, but she wasn't sure yet on what day. She also said the tribe was planning to buy an ad in the Chronicle as part of the effort to explain its intentions. Anita O'Bryan, manager
