BACKGROUND: The brand-new Calder Casino at Calder Casino & Race Course opened its doors for guests for the first time on Friday, Jan. 22 at 9:00 a.m. as a result of passing its review by the State of Florida on Thursday, Jan. 21. The expansive single-level facility (104,000 square feet total) boasts over 1,200 Class III slot machines in an atmosphere reminiscent of the best casinos in Las Vegas. The Calder Casino is the only casino at a Thoroughbred horse track in Miami-Dade County and is the second pari-mutuel facility in the county to offer slots. Voters approved a referendum to allow slot machines at the then three existing pari-mutuel facilities in Miami-Dade in January 2008. Calder broke ground on the new facility on June 3, 2009 and completed construction earlier this month. Calder first opened as a horse racing track in 1971 and has welcomed locals and visitors alike every year since then. It's been one of the most successful pari-mutuel franchises in Florida's history. Calder also opened a card room in October 2009, the 29-table Studz Poker Club.
