The Truro Harness Horse Owners Association is planning a fundraiser in support of Clare MacDonald, who was injured in a racing accident in Saint John, NB earlier this summer.
MacDonald is one of the most successful female driver/trainers in Canada and is much respected in the Maritime harness racing industry.
MacDonald's friends will be throwing a party on Saturday, October 25 at 7:30 p.m. at the Truro Horsemen's Club, located on the grounds of Truro Raceway.
