Clinton Raceway Generous With Donation To Local Hospital Foundation

The Clinton Raceway has given a generous donation to the Clinton Hospital Foundation.

A cheque for $30,000 was handed over to the foundation.

The money was raised through this year's Legends Day Event where hall of fame harness drivers come to Clinton to race in the Legends Trot and donate their fees.

“It’s great to be able to give back to the communities that have supported harness racing for many, many years” states marketing manager for the track, Jessica Carnochan. “Clinton Raceway draws fans from far and wide, Huron County and beyond, we want to give these fans a chance to utilize our facility and be able to aide in their goals”.

Money raised during the event will be used by the Clinton Public Hospital Foundation for the new nurse call system with wireless phone integration.
