Mountaineer Casino Smoke Free
Mountaineer Race Track and Casino and other public places in Hancock County, West Virginia will become strictly non-smoking areas next year. The Hancock County Board of Health on Tuesday approved. One day, American casino gamblers will be able to play without the health risk of secondhand smoke, says the founder of the company that designed and built a unique smoking pavilion at Mountaineer casino. “I think eventually all casinos will be (smoke-free),” says John Stewart, president and CEO of Encompass. The city of New Orleans and Hancock County, W.Va., home to Mountaineer Casino, also ban smoking in casinos. Repace acknowledges executives’ concern but says “it just doesn’t make sense” because so many smoke-free casinos are profitable. “It doesn’t make sense in the health of the workers, that’s for sure,” he adds. The casino will operate at 50% occupancy of total floor capacity. Effective at 12AM on November 14, 2020, smoking will be prohibited throughout the entire casino. Face masks are required to be worn if not actively eating or drinking. Thank you for your cooperation!
