L

as Vegas-based Olympia Gaming has announced the leadership team set to oversee project development Legends Bay Casino in Sparks, Nevada.

The executive leadership team includes Chief Operating Officer DeCourcy Graham, Chief Financial Officer Robin Nedza, and Regional President Court Cardinal.

Upon the announcement, Olympia Companies CEO and Chairman Garry Goett said: “We are fortunate to have an executive leadership team of this caliber to lead Olympia Gaming.”

Graham, who will be tasked with managing and developing the casino, has worked for Olympia for 17 years and previously served in executive roles including MGM Resorts and Las Vegas Sands.

Nedza, who will also be in charge of finances in Casino Fandango in Carson City, has been part of the company for 17 years. He is also member of the American Institute of CPAs and Financial Executives International.

Cardinal, current president and general manager of Olympia’s Casino Fandango, will lead both businesses as regional president: he counts with over three decades in the gaming industry, and has opened two casinos from the ground, according to a press release.

“Building on the success of Casino Fandango, our team is excited to bring this new destination to the City of Sparks. The property will offer exciting gaming, dining and entertainment options unlike anything in northern Nevada,” further added Goett.

Legends Bay Casino broke ground in Sparks in March 31, 2021 with an expected launch in summer 2022. Olympia Gaming has been planning the opening of the casino for over a decade, throughout which many adversities were faced, including the 2008 recession and Covid-19 hardships since 2019.

The original thoughts and concepts are unchanged. It’s just gotten better with time, with the growth of Sparks and the entire Washoe County Area, so we’re very excited about that,” said DeCourcy Graham earlier this year.

The 80,000-square feet facility will feature slot machines, table gaming, dining options, bars and a sportsbook. It is set to become the first casino built from the ground up in the Reno-Sparks metropolitan area in 26 years, reported News 4 in March.

“This project is 14 years in the making,” added the recently-announced Chief Operating Officer for the casino project. “We plan to build a project that the community will be proud to call their own.”
