Casino Employee Spotlight
Louise Coulson
enjoys the Bingo team
"I didn't even start working until I was forty," said
Louise Coulson, a Bingo Floor Clerk. But make no
mistake, life didn't begin at forty for this tribal mem
ber. She was too busy raising her six children to
have time for a career away from home. But now her
kids are all grown, and Louise is enjoying new expe
riences in her job at Spirit Mountain.
And she works in one of the Casino's most popu
lar attractions bingo one area that seldom has
a slow night.
"I do customer service, pay outs, selling of games,
and calling out numbers," she said. "We all have
different duties on our team, and work together re
ally well."
Louise, who previously worked at a hotel in Reno,
placed her application with Human Resources two
years ago, right before the Casino opened.
"I was called for an interview in Spirit Mountain
Outfitters," said Louise, "but ended up being placed
in Bingo."
Louise has since received awards for her outstand
ing attendance and Team Player of the Month.
Louise enjoys spending time with her family, and
her fourteen grandchildren. She and her husband
make frequent trips to Reno, a town Louise says is
special to her, filled with wonderful memories of when
she used to live there. But she and her husband just
bought a manufactured home for their lot at Grand
Meadows, and plan to move to Grand Ronde shortly.
"It will be really nice to live close to where I work,"
she said. Louise is also active in tribal functions,
especially Elders' events. Last summer she went to
Warm Springs with the Elders for Pi Urn Sha Days.
