Greenwood Gaming and Entertainment, two separate fines totaling $80,000:

• A $40,000 fine for three instances of permitting underage individuals to access the gaming floor and play slot machines or table games;

These matters, presented by the Board’s Office of Chief Counsel and the OEC, set the number of individuals now on the Board’s various Involuntary Exclusion Lists to 1,463.

The Gaming Control Board is scheduled to meet next at 10:00 a.m. on Wednesday, June 17, 2026 in the Board’s Public Hearing Room located on the second floor of the Strawberry Square Complex in Harrisburg. More information, including the agenda, will be posted on the Board’s website prior to the meeting.
