Horseman George Teague recently provided Trot Insider with an update on his star pacer, Wiggle It Jiggleit. At that time, Teague did not mention that he’d be making a trip north of the border in just a few short weeks.

Officials from the Truro Harness Horse Owners Association have provided Trot Insider with some of the details surrounding the organization’s upcoming awards banquet, which honours the top performers from the local 2016 season of live racing.

The association is happy to announce that Teague, the longtime horse owner and trainer, will be this year’s guest speaker.

The awards banquet will be held on Saturday, March 25 at the Best Western Glangarry, located in Truro, Nova Scotia.

The banquet will start at 6:00 p.m. with a meet and greet. Dinner will be served at 6:30 p.m. and will be followed with the award presentations and a dance.

Tickets for the event are now on sale at a cost of $30 and can be purchased from Chantel Gillis, Pam Moore, Tammy Mackay or Penny Wesley.

As well, on Friday, March 24 – the day before the banquet – there will be a meet and greet with Teague at the Truro Raceway grandstand, which everyone is welcome to attend. The meet and greet will start at 7:00 p.m.
