The Mississippi Band of Choctaw Indians’ gaming site in Jones County will be called Bok Homa Casino.
Tribe spokesman Warren Strain said the name means “red creek” in Choctaw. Strain tells WDAM-TV construction of Bok Homa Casino is ahead of schedule and a job fair will be held for the casino Oct. 22 at Sawmill Square Mall in Laurel. A second job fair will be held Oct. 29 in Biloxi.
Strain says the casino wants to hire more than 300 full- and part-time employees.
The casino will have 722 slot machines and a quick-serve eatery is planned for the 27,000-square-foot site. It is scheduled to open in mid-December.
