Community Colleges

After the passage of Amendment 50 on November 4, 2008, the Colorado gaming industry has forged a new partnership with the state's community colleges.  All new revenue generated from increased bet limits, expanded operating hours and the new games of craps and roulette will benefit the state's community colleges.  These educational institutions are an important resource to Coloradans for their education needs, and our community colleges train our first-responders for emergency services and health care.  After local voters in the towns of Black Hawk, Central City and Cripple Creek hold elections to approve these changes to gaming regulations, the effective date of the new rules will be July 2, 2009.
