4 May 2014 Greater Bangor Convention & Visitors Bureau VisitBangorMaine.com 800-916-6673 October is Breast Cancer Awareness Month
Hollywood Casino Hotel and Raceway is ramping up efforts to call attention to breast cancer awareness throughout the month of October. Traditionally, October is Breast Cancer Awareness Month, designed to remind people to take the steps to have a plan to detect the disease in its early stages while encouraging others to do the same. "We have a team every year in the Komen Race for the Cure because breast cancer - and cancer in general - is something that affects everyone," said Jose Flores, General Manager at Hollywood Casino Hotel & Raceway. "If just one life is saved because we've reminded people about early detection, or because someone saw a pink-themed item on our gaming floor and thought that they really needed to schedule an appointment with their doctor, then it makes it all worthwhile." Throughout the month, Hollywood Casino will be selling "Hollywood Strong" tee- shirts in the gift shop, with proceeds being donated to the Maine Breast Cancer Coalition and the BRA organization. In addition, Hollywood Casino has placed a Titos for Tatas donation box on the gaming floor allowing patrons to donate their "Tito" tickets to the cause. Tito tickets are the tickets customers use for slot play, allowing customers to cash out after they have finished playing. Hollywood Casino will also feature various promotions throughout October to honor Breast Cancer Awareness Month. For the next three Wednesdays, the first 200 customers who attend Lucky Ladies Night at Hollywood Casino will receive a free pink gift. In addition, pink themed items will be seen throughout the resort, including pink shopping bags in the gift shop, pink lemonade and cookies at the hotel, and various pink cocktails for purchase at the Sound Stage Lounge and Celebrity Bar and Grill. We have employees, family members, customers, and friends who are breast cancer survivors, said Flores. "This month is as much about reminding people to do the right thing, and think about early detection, as it is about honoring the survivors we see every day, and remembering those who have lost the fight. Cancer is an unforgiving disease, but sometimes a small step in the right direction can make a very big difference." Hollywood Casino Goes Pink for Breast Cancer Awareness
Hollywood Strong Gift Giveaway and Lucky Ladies Night Every Wednesday in October from 6PM 9PM the first 200 Club Hollywood Members to present their Club Hollywood Cards at the Sound Stage Lounge will receive a free pink gift. Plus, ladies playing with their club Hollywood card will have a chance to win Free Slot Play! October 2014

In our Bangor location, we are currently using a 5/10 barrel system. The Brewer Brewery will have a 20/40 barrel system. In keeping with other local companies tradition, the system is being built by Tigpro Stainless Steel Fabricators in Portland, Maine. The next step is to have Hampden Electrical and Harley Plumbing of Bangor and Downeast Sheet Metal of Brewer and the Redmond Company of Frankfort, prepare the site for the system to be installed. After the system is in place, the next step will be to add a bottling line. We are in talks with our friends at Atlantic Brewing Company in Bar Harbor and we are planning on purchasing their gently used system. We are also working with John Belding from the Advanced Manufacturing Center of the College of Engineering at the University of Maine. John, his team and a group of his students are going to work on system replacement efficiencies. Geaghans Brewery Expansion Update
