After a tour of Century Downs in Alberta, Standardbred Canada's President & CEO Dan Gall has headed east for his first taste of Old Home Week and harness racing on Prince Edward Island.
"Red Shores Racetrack is something special," noted Gall. "They have done a magnificent job in capturing the history of that racetrack from colour displays, salutes to the awesome drivers, and the incredible history. It really is something to see that brings people in to see the faces, the pictures and the history. It is so well done that you can honestly spend hours looking at the pictures. Solid effort by Kent [Oakes] and the volunteers.
"It was rain-soaked on Wednesday but the crowds were still strong and there was some great racing. Kent introduced me to a ton (and I mean a ton) of people we even toured the paddock after the races were over. He will be keeping me busy Thursday and Friday and the weather is supposed to be better."
Gall has provided the following photos and will be sending more photos from his tour of PEI as it progresses. To view the photos submitted thus far, click the following link: Dan Gall at Old Home Week
