“A call to service is a Native American tradition,” said John Christman, Chairman of the Viejas Band of Kumeyaay Indians. “Because we feel an enormous amount of respect and appreciation for the brave men and women who serve our country and communities-not only because San Diego is full of service members, but also because of the significant number of Native Americans who have served.” ”All of us here at Viejas are honored to launch the Viejas Heroes Club appreciation program this upcoming Veterans Day,” said Jim Wild, General Manager of Viejas Casino & Resort. In addition, with the county’s shared border with Mexico and the whole of California’s increasing threat of seasonal wildfires, San Diego County is home to a prevalence of border patrol agents, law enforcement, and first responders. More military personnel reside in California than in any other state, and San Diego County contains the greatest concentration of military personnel inside California. ALPINE, Calif.-( BUSINESS WIRE)-On Veterans Day, November 11th, 2019, Viejas Casino & Resort will launch the Heroes Club, a one-of-a-kind benefits program designed to give back to those who serve as well as their dependents.
