treasure hunts, beach Olympics, volleyball tournaments, 5K walks and runs, snorkeling adventures and marine animal interactions. FOXWOODS RESORT CASINO, CONNECTICUT Foxwoods is the largest resort casino in North America. Owned and operated by the Mashantucket Pequot Tribal Nation, it was one of the first Native American gaming halls to open in the country. In addition to six casinos with an array of gaming, 150,000 of meeting space, 18 holes of golf, 20 restaurants, 80 retail stores, and even an ice rink, it features the 308,000 sf Pequot Museum that tells the story of this native Algonquin people. Groups can also explore the Pequot trails of the Connecticut woods, which weave through the outdoor exhibits of the museum rising nearly 500 feet above sea level for stunning views over the Black Island Sound. "For incentive and social groups, the casino is a definite draw," says Karen O'Connell, director of resort sales at Foxwoods. "For others, it all depends on the purpose of the event and their corporate culture. We have a great opportunity with what we refer to as 'Gaming 101' where we bring in tables and dealers to a private function room and the attendees play for points instead of money."
