HOGANSBURG -- Akwesasne Mohawk Casino gave away a new Ford Mustang to a lucky patron.

The names of five contestants were drawn at the conclusion of the casino’s Memorial Weekend giveaway contest Sunday night and verified for the chance to win the car.

Casino spokesman Ben Herne said that the winner of the car wishes to remain anonymous. The other four won consolation prizes of $1,000.

Herne said there were 25,000 entries in the memorial Day Giveaway, and Special Events and Promotions Manager Starr Thomas said the casino hopes for a similar response to its Father's Day Giveaway on June 18.

The Akwesasne Mohawk Casino is on Route 37 in Hogansburg, and features over 1,600 Vegas style slot machines, table games, and four restaurants.
