“We are looking at implementing the same type of creativity on the rooftop for now.”Īlthough The Rooftop project began well before COVID-19, its al-fresco location has proven to be a much-needed asset for the casino during this time, said Cheeks. “The capacity for the space is 500 people, but since we are not booking events now, we are trying to get innovative in the same way that restaurants have gotten witty with sidewalk dining and social distancing efforts,” said Cheeks. With private events like weddings and corporate parties limited due to the pandemic, the space will temporarily function as an exclusive outlet for Jamul’s Sweetwater Rewards Club VIP guests, according to President and General Manager Mary Cheeks, with the goal of getting them out to the casino more often and enticing them to stay longer.
