Tioga Downs donates almost $6,000 to Hurricane Harvey relief efforts6 September 2017(PRESS RELEASE) -- Tioga Downs Casino is proud to announce that the casino, alongside the American Red Cross, raised nearly $6,000 to benefit the victims of Hurricane Harvey. On Sunday night, Tioga Downs hosted a concert featuring Frankie Avalon, Bobby Rydell and Fabian. Ahead of the concert, Tioga Downs invited the American Red Cross to set up a table in the rotunda, collecting donations for Hurricane Harvey victims. The organization was able to collect $2,950 from our generous patrons. Jeff Gural, owner of Tioga Downs, matched that number, bringing the final donation to approximately $5,900. "The people of the Southern Tier know firsthand the devastating impact flooding can have on a community," Gural said. "It's my hope that those affected by Hurricane Harvey know they are present in our minds, and that this donation will help them heal and rebuild." |
