Ontario Harness Horse Association (OHHA) members from district 8 met on Wednesday, September 30 to discuss race dates and contract issues with Darryl MacArthur
, President of OHHA, as well as local directors Paul Lindsey and Dave Boughton.
“We have enjoyed a good working relationship with management of Grand River Raceway and anticipate having a negotiated agreement shortly that satisfies the needs of both the Horsepeople and the Grand River Agricultural Society,” stated OHHA President Darryl MacArthur.
Management of Grand River Raceway has indicated to OHHA that they are looking at scheduling race dates that will maximize the interest and participation in wagering from all sources. OHHA will work collectively with Grand River Raceway to achieve the goal of increased wagering which in turn drives revenues for both the racetrack as well as the racetrack purse account.
