The Reception for NIGA Chairman Ernie Stevens on Monday evening March 30th kicking off the National Indian Gaming Association 2015 Trade Show and Convention was memorable. Poolside at the San Diego Manchester Hyatt was an elegant multicultural mix which attracted hundreds of attendees and well -wishers who came from all corners of the nations’ Indian gambling meccas. The celebratory event was filled with reminiscing marking the Chairman’s seventh year as chair. Formal attire punctuated by cowboy boots and hats made for a high- spirited “come as you are” interactive setting . 

In keeping with the underlying theme of business development Bro Hugh Muhammad and his wife Sybil of Muhammad Mosque #8 6601 Imperial Ave, San Diego, anointed the gathering with their presence. As founder of ”I Am My Brother’s Keeper”, Hugh Muhammad’s reaching out emphasized “I Am My Brother’s Keeper’ “commitment to vision and service while complementing Chairman Steven’s conviction that, “Our membership is our strength and we are stronger when our voice is unified.”
Danny Tucker and his awesome band polished off the enchanted evening with a set designed to inspire the ancestors to shine a light on continued community development and networking.
