Members of the Dry Creek Rancheria Band of Pomo Indians and Caesars leadership signed the

Indians and Caesars Entertainment. Moorefield Construction is the project's construction
partner, and architecture and design firm Steelman Partners designed the resort.

About Dry Creek Rancheria Band of Pomo Indians
The Dry Creek Rancheria Band of Pomo Indians is a Northern California Tribe whose Pomo
ancestors continuously and successfully occupied the Russian River and Dry Creek Valleys for
more than five thousand years. Official recognition of the Tribe as a sovereign nation occurred
in 1915, when the federal government created the Dry Creek Rancheria and named the Tribe
the Dry Creek Rancheria Band of Pomo Indians. The rancheria occupies 75 acres in Geyserville
off Highway 128 – a sliver of the Tribe’s historic land. In March 2000, the California voters
passed Proposition 1A — also known as the Gambling on Tribal Lands Amendment — approving
Indian gaming on reservation lands. Dry Creek Rancheria opened River Rock Casino in 2002 and
has been in operation since then. Dry Creek Rancheria is made up of approximately 1,300 Tribal
members and more than 60% live in Sonoma County.
