Lon - Successful Family Day In London


LONDON, Ontario . . . The Raceway at Western Fair District hosted area families on Family Day yesterday with a variety of fun activities which included meeting a pair of retired racehorses which proved a big hit with the youngsters.

The Ontario Standardbred Adoption Society brought two horses to London yesterday and not only did the children enjoy seeing and petting the horses, it also afforded an opportunity to spread the word about the good work the organization does to find homes for retired harness horses.

Today’s London Free Press carried a story and photos from the event which may be viewed through the link below.
