Hi Christina - Yaamava’ is the Serrano word for the spring season, a time of transformation, boundless potential and new life. With our new resort/expansion launching soon, we felt it was the perfect time to make the change to new World Class offering. Hope to see you again soon! -Yaamava' Resort & Casino
It fits with their tribe as they stated in their press release
Merger
Be cause they are now a resort because of the hotel they had to.basically for prestigious name so they can make more money
They changed their do to the new development of the hotel they are building.
The new name (pronounced YAH-ma-vah) not only reflects the significant expansion of our gaming operations into a resort destination, but this word from our ancestral heritage also points to who we are today. In the Serrano language, the word “yaamava'” means the spring season.3 days ago
Since with the new add the hotel and more space for more slot machines and bathrooms and bars also cashiers and high limit there s enough machines for everyone to play instead of having to wait for availability. It was too crowded and it would be nothing but frustrations but not anymore .. yaamava means springs makes sense for the new name . Spring cleaning when we d clean everything out and start a new day again they sure did that .. congratulations
They are changing with the times just look around. I was there on yesterday on the 2nd floor at the Merch they now have a variety of snacks cup cakes, candy bars nuts, trail mix and great snacks while you are at the machines. What a Great idea when you don't feel like standing in a line for food just yet. Thank you Great idea.
