Dear Editor;
Back before I was born, my parents went to Florida where my father worked at a race track. My Mother use to tell me a story about the Seminole Indians in the end field of the race track. She would tell me how she would watch the women braid their hair and it was so smooth and looked like a fan. She had an Indian doll with the hair like that.
When Mother passed away, something happened to the doll and we could never find it. I have looked for years for a doll like that. It was only about nine inches tall.
Could you please tell me where I might like one of those dolls? Thank you,
Judy

Hello Judy. We currently have dolls in stock with the “Fan” type hair style. If you would like to see a picture of one please, let me know. Otherwise you can order one at our website www.seminoletribe.com/marketplace and I will ship one out right away. Please call me at (800) 683-7800 x 1263 if I can be of further assistance.
Thank you,

Hi, I am coming down to Florida shortly and I am curious about your poker limits. I had heard that all poker was low limit, but then I heard that it had changed.
On your website, you mentioned pot limit games. My question is, do you have conventional limits of 1/5, 3/6, 5/10 and up? Some of our group likes 10/20 and others like 3/6 or 4/8 etc.
Thanks for any info on your poker.

Maximum bets are $2.00 per bet with three raises no pot limit

Hello,
My daughter is doing a report in school on American Indians. We went to the Museum of Natural History here in New York and saw a tribe that was called the Thompson Tribe. We are trying to get more information on this tribe and were wondering if you could help us?
Thank you for your prompt attention to this matter.

Hello, we currently host a website that lists all of the Federally Recognized Tribes in the United States. If they do have a website and are Federally Recognized, you will find it there. Please go to www.indiancircle.com. Good Luck!

To whom it may Concern,
My name is Kristin Charboneau and I currently work as a Gaming and Floor Attendant cashier. I mainly work those two areas all of the time and while I love my job, I would love it even more in a more pleasant environment.
I was wondering if maybe I could be given a chance to become a Gaming/Attendant cashier in the Hard Rock Casino in Hollywood. Thank you in advance for your time and consideration.

Thank you for your inquiry and interest in employment opportunities with the new Seminole Hard Rock Hotel & Casino in Hollywood, FL. The property is scheduled to open spring of 2004.
Very little hiring has begun at this early stage, but we do plan a large Job Fair, tentatively scheduled in February. There will be well over 1,000 jobs available initially, including part time.
Watch for advertising and promotion for this event.
Additionally, the website lists pre-opening job opportunities. Begin monitoring the Seminole Tribe of Florida’s website, www.semtribe.com, for a link from their homepage to Employment, and then to the Hard Rock Division for this information. Job Fair details will also be posted on this site at a later date.
The Seminole Tribal Council gives preference in all of its employment practices to Indians. If you should be an official Tribal Member of any federally recognized Native American Tribe, please let me know.
You did not indicate if your present employment is with one of the Seminole Tribe’s existing casinos. If it is, you must go through your property’s Human Resources Department for the transfer request procedure. In order to do this, you must also have a specific position you are requesting to transfer to. As most of our positions will not be available until after the first of the year, it might be better to wait until then. Again, thank you for your interest.

Dear Tribal Members:
We have some exciting news!
Seminole Hard Rock Hotel & Casino-Tampa will be opening in March 2004. We are full steam ahead into making this dream… a reality.
The purpose of this letter is to ask for your assistance in helping us locate qualified people to staff our new casino such as other Tribal Members or perhaps yourself! Since you represent the foundation and heritage of this organization, we thought there could be no better place to turn for help than our own Tribal Members.
We have full-time and part-time positions available in the casino and hotel. As you know, we have great customers, a pleasant working environment and tremendous opportunity for advancement.
Human Resource Representatives will be interviewing Monday, Dec. 1 at each of the Tribal Reservations. We will be interviewing on Monday from 9:00 a.m. to 5:00 p.m.
If you are interested or know another Tribal Member who may be interested, please come by to discuss your career aspirations.
Thank you for your help. We look forward to seeing you at our Grand Opening.
Best regards,
Jim Allen
Chief Executive Officer
