Golden Entertainment has promoted STRAT Las Vegas General Manager Chris Fiumara to the position of regional senior vice president of operations.
In his new role, Fiumara will oversee most of the company’s casino portfolio, including the STRAT, two Arizona Charlie’s casinos in Las Vegas, three casinos in Pahrump, Nev., and the Rocky Gap Casino Resort in Maryland.
“Stephen brings decades of gaming and hospitality expertise to this role, where he will see through the transformation of the STRAT, which will be completed as we welcome 2020,” said Chief Operating Officer Steve Arcana.
His replacement at the STRAT is Stephen Thayer, a 15-year veteran of Caesars Entertainment who most recently served as general manager of Harrah’s Atlantic City.
Publicly traded Golden also operates three casinos in Laughlin, Nevada, some 60 branded gaming taverns across the state and more than 10,000 slot machines in bars, restaurants, truck stops and grocery stores in Nevada and Montana.
