USTA Announces ‘Face Time’ Feature

Published: May 31, 2018 04:04 pm EDT

As part of the U.S. Trotting Association’s social media initiative, the new ‘Harness Racing FanZone Face Time’ feature with the United States’s winningest driver, Aaron Merriman, debuted Thursday (May 31) on the Harness Racing FanZone.

‘Harness Racing FanZone Face Time’ will become a regular, one-on-one video feature with drivers, trainers, owners and other harness racing industry participants.

“This new one-on-one interview format will be focused on allowing harness racing fans to get to know the stars as well as the everyday people that work in the industry more personally in a light-hearted way and to explore some of their interests away from the track,” said USTA Director of Marketing and Communications Dan Leary.

The Merriman pilot interview was conducted by new USTA Social Media Coordinator Wendy Ross at Eldorado Scioto Downs last Saturday (May 26) and edited by 2017 Hervey Award-winning producer Rich Johnston, the USTA’s multimedia coordinator. To watch the Merriman interview, click here.
