All-In Diversity Project Launches Membership Programme
The All-In Diversity Project has launched a Membership Programme which includes an industry-wide Mentorship Programme. The Membership Programme is open to both corporations and individuals and offers a range of benefits.
The Mentorship Programme is free for Supporters and Bosses and sees members with knowledge, experience and understanding of the work or workplace support the development of another member. Mentoring can be done in person or remotely.
The process is based on encouragement, accountability, constructive feedback, openness, mutual trust, respect and a willingness to learn and share. Discussions are usually centred on the mentee’s development and career/business plans but can also be used to help support other objectives.
The Membership Programme is currently in beta with a 50% discount offered to those that sign up between now and January 1, 2020. You can sign up at the All-In Diversity Project website www.allindiversityproject.com.
“The beta launch of our Membership Programme, Member Directory and Mentorship Programme are the next steps in our mission to provide the industry with the resources it needs to progress in terms of diversity and inclusion. While we offer both corporate and individual memberships, we really want to see individuals sign up and take advantage of the incredible benefits our Membership and Mentorship Programmes have to offer, allowing them to progress in their careers within the industry,” Kelly Kehn, co-founder of the All-In Diversity Project said.

Nebraska’s First Permanent Casino to Open in May in Columbus
Nebraska’s first full-fledged, newly built and state-sanctioned gambling casino is slated to open in Columbus next month, marking a milestone in the state’s rollout of casino gambling.
The Nebraska Racing and Gaming Commission last Friday approved a target opening date of May 13 for Harrah’s Columbus.
“This is a big deal,” commission Chairman Dennis Lee said.
The state’s three other casinos are open, but in temporary facilities. According to construction schedules, all should be open by early next year.
“We’re definitely excited to open the first permanent casino in the state,” said Don Ostert, Harrah’s Columbus general manager.
The 17,000-square-foot casino floor will feature 400 slot machines and 11 live table games, including roulette and craps, Ostert said. It will feature a Brew Brothers restaurant and will offer Caesar’s sportsbook and racebook, Ostert said.
For racing fans, the complex will feature the state’s only 1-mile horse track, though racing isn’t scheduled to begin until August 16. By June, officials hope to have some horses out on the track to test the new surface.
Ostert said officials hope to draw customers from Norfolk and Grand Island, but also from Omaha and Lincoln.
Columbus Mayor James Bulkley said that, from the city’s standpoint, “we are very excited to see it get started and become part of the community.”
The developers incorporated some Columbus history into the casino, he said.
“The location where it is used to be called Wishbones, and it was a venue for years for entertainment, and so people recognize that name, and they have kept that name for the sports bar,” he said.
He expects the casino will draw from Omaha. Although driving to Columbus from downtown Omaha might take close to an hour and a half, the drive from west Omaha is more like an hour, he said.
“I can hit Elkhorn in a short hour today, which is now western Omaha,” he said.
In a few months, Omahans won’t have to leave town to visit a brand-new casino.
At Horsemen’s Park in Omaha, Warhorse Gaming officials are aiming to open their new casino in early August. It will open with 900 gaming positions, including table games and a Sweetwater Cafe.
