Standardbred Canada will make a major announcement at a media conference on Wednesday, March 11 at

Hiawatha Horse Park in Sarnia, Ont.

The announcement is part of SC’s strategic plan and one of SC’s initiatives to increase awareness of harness racing, encourage trial of the product and develop a new fan base.

This initiative complements a number of efforts that are within the Standardbred Wagering Action Plan and is the culmination of a year of planning.

The initial press conference will be attended by several local dignitaries including Sarnia Mayor Mike Bradley.

Details on the announcement will follow the press reception at Hiawatha and be available on SC’s website in the early afternoon.
