Gaming News 1 7 Thursday, April 4, 2019 so passionate about what we do. GN: What products and services do you offer? TD: We provide a robust range of products and services, including prop- erty and liability coverage for tribal governments and businesses, Tribal Workers' Compensation, individual homeowner and renter's coverage and employee benefits. Also, our AMERIND Critical Infrastructure helps Tribal communities obtain high- speed Internet. We continue to expand to meet the evolving needs of our Tribal members, while keeping Native communities safe. GN: What sets AMERIND Risk apart from its competition? TD: AMERIND Risk avoids a one-size- fits-all approach to insurance. We consid- er a tribe's key risks and design an insur- ance program around those risks. Doing business sovereign to sover- eign with AMERIND Risk means saving money by avoiding state and federal taxes and fees. Our expense ratio is typi- cally 10-20 percent less than other insur- ance carriers. Saving tribes money on insurance gives tribes the ability to spend their money where it is needed most – their communities. With a 60 percent Native American staff, AMERIND Risk is personally invested in serving tribes. We approach business as a person-to-person relation- ship. We treat every AMERIND client like a family member. AMERIND is sensitive to tribal cul- AMERIND Risk (Cont'd. from p. 1) ture and tradition. Unlike many insurance providers, we insure mobile homes and traditional homes. AMERIND Risk's Tribal Workers' Compensation (TWC) is a tribal solution to state workers' compensation. Our TWC program offers excellent protection for employees at a reduced cost. Meanwhile, AMERIND saves tribes time and legal expense by handling any work- ers' compensation litigation in tribal jurisdiction. AMERIND Risk goes the extra mile to offer workforce safety training through our TWC program, and to educate Tribal housing authorities, homeowners and renters about safety measures to reduce risk. Prioritizing prevention reduces time lost at work, and helps control losses and rising premiums. GN: In what other ways does AMERIND Risk contribute to the sustainability of Indian Country? TD: Because 100 percent of our revenue comes from tribes, AMERIND Risk 'gives back' to Indian Country. We firmly believe in helping to grow and build trib- al communities. We allocate $500,000 annually for tribal organizations, Native scholarships, outreach and advocacy, event sponsorships and more. For more than 30 years, AMERIND Risk has stood by tribes through hardships, helping communi- ties rebuild and flourish. AMERIND Risk is here for the long haul – as long as tribes need us.

Industry research shows that with the sig- nificant annual revenue generated by larger bowling entertainment centers, many centers realize an impressive return on their invested capital within the first year. But the investment isn't only finan- cial – it's communal. "Bowling is multiplayer, interactive and even collaborative. The physical nature of the action and the excitement of healthy competition all aid in the com- prehensive wellness goal the community has for its members," said Adam Saks, Chief Operating Officer at UltraStar Multi-Tainment Center at Ak-Chin Circle. "The bowling center is important to our community in many ways. First Bowling (Cont'd. from p. 4) and foremost, it is a complete departure from gaming. It invigorates the young while energizing the elders. Our bowling center also dramatically increases avail- able employment opportunities for com- munity members 16 and older." The successful bowling center draws customers in and keeps them coming back. Creating that environment requires a strategic partner with a significant depth and breadth of experience, combined with staying power and a commitment to pro- viding ongoing support. With more than 125 years of experience and products installed in more than 70 percent of the world's bowling centers, Brunswick Bowling is the best-known and most- trusted name in the game – adding value to every aspect of the business. The bottom line? No matter what assistance is needed to get the most out of a new bowling center, investors can count on Brunswick to deliver state-of- the-art products and exceptional service.

The company supports the growing consumer technolo- gies sector with advanced material solu- tions including projects that involve bio- compatible plastics for skin contact applications, chemical resistant materi- als, transparent light diffusion grades to allow for translucent LED displays, and plastics with recycled content to support sustainability goals. As consumer technologies evolve, product developers and designers need to consider materials that they may not have considered in the past.
