Another successful trackside fundraiser, in the Day at the Races Fundraising program, took place Sunday afternoon at Clinton Raceway.
In addition to the 10-race card, race fans came out and supported Clinton Minor Baseball through the silent auction, 50/50 draw, raffle and BBQ. The handle on the day’s race card was just over $21,000
The local group of baseball enthusiasts was able to raise approx $5,900 to be used towards diamond upkeep at both the Clinton and Holmesville locations. A total of 185 players ranging from ages 8-18 are registered in both the softball and hardball programs in the 2016 season.
Each Sunday Clinton Raceway hosts a different group, club or organization looking to raise money. Remaining fundraisers include AAA Huron Perth Lakers, Huron Heat Girls Hockey Association, Ontario Standardbred Adoption Society, Perth Stratford Humane Society, The Sunshine Foundation and The Royal Canadian Legion.
Groups that are interested in the track side fundraising program for the 2017 program at Clinton Raceway are invited to contact Jessica Carnochan ([email protected]) for applications and information.
The Ontario Sires Stakes make its 2016 season debut at Clinton Raceway on Sunday, July 17 as two-year-old filly pacers hit the track.
