Boyd destinations nationwide helped make the season of giving brighter with the Company’s annual holiday competitions, “Wreaths of Hope” and “Trees of Hope.” More than 160 charities nationwide participated in the 2021 holiday competition, as Boyd properties across the country awarded a combined prize pool of more than $180,000.
