New jobs are headed to eastern Oklahoma. The Cherokee Nation plans to build a casino on land the tribe already owns near Interstate 40 and Oklahoma Highway 59.

Cherokee Nation Enterprises has also purchased seven acres west of the casino site for parking and a hotel. The casino will employ between 100 and 125 workers.

It's scheduled to open next spring.
