Posts Tagged ‘A Night at the Races’

On Saturday, April 26, gather up all of your family and friends and come on down to the St. Joseph’s Catholic Church Parish Activity Center (the PAC) for a racing spectacular. Located at 670 West Main Street (behind the fire station), the PAC will be the site of a fun evening of horse racing that will benefit UPCO, the Uptown Plain City Organization.

Become a horse owner, name your steed, and listen for the race announcer to call it out. Enjoy the free buffet while betting against your neighbor’s horse. There are a limited number of horses available, so we suggest buying early: $20 per horse!

Costs are: $25 each person or $40 per couple. And if you decide to participate in the races, you can spend $20 per horse you decide to “own.”

There will also be a free buffet and cash bar, an auction race which you can enter to win half the cash, a 50/50 raffle, and lots more fun!

As this is the kickoff day to Kentucky Derby week, there will also be virgin mint juleps and a Best Derby Hat contest. So get those fancy hats out or decorate one to wear.

Tickets and horses may be purchased in person at ASE Seed & Feed, as well as Main Street Treasures. Please note that you do not have to be present at the event to be a winning horse owner.
