Foothill Oaks Casino Announces Name Change
APRIL 7, 2008. The Shingle Springs Band of Miwok Indians announced today that it has changed the name of the Foothill Oaks Casino to Red Hawk Casino, to better reflect its vision for the property.
"It was important for us to select a name that best reflects our vision for the property," said Nicholas H. Fonseca, Tribal Chairman, Shingle Springs Band of Miwok Indians. "We believe the Red Hawk Casino name conveys a strong and exciting vision that will help set the right expectation for the Red Hawk Casino as northern California's premier gaming destination."

The casino will feature more than 2,000 slot machines, table games, six restaurants, four bars, and lighted and covered parking.
