Utah Quarter Horse Association Kicks Off Horse Race Season with Fun for the Family
Author: Billy Peterson
Salt Lake City, Utah – Get ready to make tracks to the Laurel Brown Equestrian Park in South Jordan to witness the fastest sport on earth. The Utah Quarter Horse Association (UQHA) prepares to kick off its 2005 racing season with five race days in Utah, running April 30th – June 18th.

The UQHA is introducing a number of new family-focused activities to entertain and educate attendees on Quarter Horse racing. Features include kids stick horse races, kids foot races, and free race track orientation tours. In addition, the UQHA will hold dog races on two separate race days.

Another race season feature is Youth Day, a program held on June 18th that encourages awareness and participation in Quarter Horse racing activities for high-school aged kids. Participants will learn how to care for horses, witness race preparations, and discuss riding tips with the jockeys.

“We are pleased to offer a number of new programs and activities for horse race fans this year,” said Billy Peterson, UQHA Director. “It will allow us to better serve the fans, educate people on Quarter Horses, and of course show people how exciting horse racing can be.”

The popularity of horse racing has increased significantly over the past several years. It is now one of the most widely attended spectator sports in the United States. Especially popular in the southwestern United States, Quarter Horse racing takes place at tracks, county fairs, and rodeos. As the name implies, Quarter Horses compete at distances of generally 440 yards (0.4 km), in sprints that last approximately 20 seconds.

The UQHA Horse Races will be held at the Laurel Brown Equestrian Park in South Jordan, located at 10800 South 2200 West. General Admission is $4. Children four and under get in free when accompanied by an adult.

2005 UQHA Race Schedule - Utah:
Gates open - 10:30 a.m., Post Time: 12:00 noon
April 30th, 2005
