MOUNT POCONO, Pa., Nov. 8, 2012 --
Officials at
Mount Airy Casino Resort – Pennsylvania's only AAA Four Diamond-rated
casino –
today revealed plans for its impending $5 million luxury indoor/
outdoor pool
project. "We are excited to share details of this
highly
anticipated project that we are sure will create the sense of a lavish
oasis,
even in the middle of January," said John Culetsu, Mount Airy's
Executive
Vice President and General Manager. "Besides adding another jewel to
our
existing crown of resort amenities such as our spa, golf course and
fine dining
options, this spectacular enhancement will also create jobs." Pending township permit approval, the
project will provide
between 75 to 100 construction related jobs, according to CECO
Associates, the
project's contracted engineering firm. Once completed, the pool area
will
employ approximately 20 additional full-time Mount Airy employees
including but
not limited to food and beverage servers, maintenance workers,
lifeguards and
entertainment personnel. "This $5 million pool project goes well
beyond a
pool," Culetsu pointed out. In addition to the 11,000 square foot, four
season pool that
features a passage allowing guests to swim continuously from indoors to
outdoors, highlights of the 52,000 square-foot project include: 'WET,'
a
sophisticated poolside bar and lounge area offering an assortment of
light
dining as well as after-dark entertainment options; Private luxury
cabanas
replete with day beds and television sets; A heated spa conjoining the
pool and
an assortment of water features and sculptures; A 5,600 square foot
outdoor
deck area with table-side fire pits and expansive views of the resort's
lake
and golf course. "The finishes in the pool area will be an
extension of
the contemporary yet elegant details that already encompass the hotel,
casino
and spa," explained Lisa DeNaples, Mount Airy owner and managing
trustee.
"The space will not only reflect the high-end building materials and
design elements we've utilized throughout the resort; it will also
provide
guests an energizing transformation as they exit the cool tranquility
of the
spa area and enter into this exciting new indoor/outdoor addition." ABOUT MOUNT AIRY CASINO RESORT Mount Airy Casino Resort, a AAA Four Diamond
