SPRINGFIELD — Shannon Sutherland said she loves gambling — especially blackjack.
And with the $960 million MGM Springfield resort casino opening in Springfield this year, Sutherland, 36, of Chicopee, plans to be a dealer and has enrolled in the new Massachusetts Casino Career Training Institute, a collaborating workforce development organization by the state’s 15 community colleges to train workers for employment at each of the three regional casinos in the state.
