While the casino is the big attraction in Verona, located some 30 miles east of Syracuse and 115 miles west of Albany, the golf is some of the best you’ll find in the Northeast. Among the performers scheduled to appear this fall are Trace Adkins, Stevie Wonder, Lynyrd Skynyrd and Rob Thomas. You can gamble around the clock or, if you choose, take in a comedy show or concert at the Event Center. The casino features 80 table games from Blackjack, Caribbean Stud Poker and Roulette to Baccarat and Texas Hold’em, a state-of-the-art Poker Room, and 2,400 Instant Multi-Game ® machines. The good news is that spectators can find shelter nearby in the form of museums - The National Baseball Hall of Fame and Museum in Cooperstown, and International Boxing Hall of Fame in Canastota are both within 60 miles – and, of course, the Turning Stone Resort Casino, for which the tournament is named. Charles Howell III plays his tee shot at the 11th hole during the third round of the 2008 Turning Stone Resort Championship.
