The Remington Park Racing-Casino hosted its second “Night at the Races” for the Oklahoma Casino Network (OCN) last May 24th. TSI was very proud to sponsor the event.

James Lancaster, Surveillance Director at Remington Park and founder of the event says, “The Night at the Races is something that we all do to just get together and relax. It’s a very informal way to get to know each other and our families” Many local tribes came for the event, had dinner and enjoyed the races. Everybody had good time.

Also, it was an opportunity to create awareness of the fundraising to benefit Sophia Pena, daughter of Zeb and Amy Pena. Zeb is VP of Engineering for Synectics USA.

Sofia was diagnosed with a rare type of brain tumor and she is undergoing a series of treatments that are both expensive and time consuming.
