The Blissfield Athletic Boosters will host their third annual “Nite at the Races” this Saturday night, Jan. 25 at the Blissfield American Legion. The “Nite at the Races” event is an evening of real horse racing with those in attendance placing bets as if they were at the track.
Race information on the horses will be provided, such as the horses’ history, starts and places. The races that take place are actual races that have been run somewhere and are shown on a large screen. The track and date of the races are not revealed.
Hot appetizers will be provided, as well as a cash bar, door prizes donated by local Blissfield businesses, and a 50-50 raffle. Doors will open at 6 p.m. with the first races starting at 7 p.m. Tickets will be $10 each and are available at the Blissfield athletic office or by contacting 517-486-4195. Tickets will also be available at the door that evening.
