The casino along the 10 Freeway between the Los Angeles and Palm Springs opened its doors at 2 p.m., after shutting down in March to help slow the spread of coronavirus.

“We’ve been looking forward to having our guests back with us for weeks now,” Simon Farmer, Morongo’s executive director of marketing said. “Our guests have been reaching out to us for the last two months, texting, emailing, and calling. They’re excited, we’re excited. It’s gonna be a great day.”

Social distancing will be observed with slot machines spaced out or separated by partitions, and seats will be removed from table games to lower the capacity. The casino’s cleaning team will be out and about at all times and on an “aggressive cleaning schedule,” Farmer said.

“We want to go above and beyond to make sure that our guests feel comfortable coming back to Morongo,” he said.

Farmer said Morongo will have teams in and out out of the casino to help monitor the crowd and manage the flow of traffic, and that they’re prepared for anyone who doesn’t want to follow the rules.

“We understand there’s some people that may not come prepared with a mask, may not come prepared to go through a screening,” he said.

If there’s anyone unwilling to comply with the new rules, “we’ll have the conversation to invite them back later,” Farmer said.

Those who arrived Friday to gamble at Morongo were ecstatic.

“If we’re safe at the grocery store with a mask then we’re safe here with a mask, right?” said Riverside resident Stephanie Christian.

“We just wanted to get a taste of normalcy again and see what it’s like to be inside a business that’s running semi-normally at least. I mean you gotta wear these muzzles, I mean, masks,” said L.A. resident David Hakimfar. “But we’re doing our best.”

On February 25, 1987, the U.S. Supreme Court decided that neither the state of California nor Riverside County could regulate the bingo and card game operations of the Cabazon Band of Mission Indians and the Morongo Band of Mission Indians.

The new casino was called Casino Morongo and included a dance hall, bowling alley, and diner.^[4]

California Proposition 1A, also known as the Gambling on Tribal Lands Amendment, was on the March 7, 2000, ballot in California, where it was approved with a 64% win.
