the country
Vernon, N.Y. – May
24, 2018 – As we enter the Memorial Day weekend, it is a time to remember and
honor all those, past and present, that have fought for the United States and
put their lives on the line daily to protect our freedom. Vernon Downs Owner Jeff Gural has long
honored military veterans as well as active duty military and will be once
again hosting a celebration of our military heroes on Monday, May 28, with live
harness racing, giveaways and entertainment.
With a

with live harness racing including a live bugler that will be calling horses to
post. Guests will be treated to the New
York Sire Stakes 3-Year-Old Colt Pace as well as the Empire Breeders Classic
Trot Finals. There will be an American flag baseball hat giveaway (while
supplies last) for all guests that visit the raceway as well. Promotions include a free handicapping
contest where contestants could win up to a $250 wagering voucher.
