Yarra Valley Racing CEO Brett Shambrook anticipates this week’s Good Friday meeting to be the club’s best yet.
Rotating locations annually, the event not only highlights Victoria’s country racing clubs but also raises funds for the Good Friday Appeal.
Shambrook expects a stellar mix of racing and entertainment, emphasising the importance of country racing in the industry.
With a solid racing program, including the $500,000 Country Discovery, and various family-friendly activities, the day promises excitement for racegoers.
The club hopes to attract crowds of around 3000 to 4000, showcasing the region’s attractions alongside the racing action.
For families, there’s an array of activities, including an Easter egg hunt, face painting, and obstacle courses.
Shambrook encourages visitors to explore the Yarra Valley’s offerings beyond the track, highlighting attractions like Healesville Sanctuary and local wineries.
The event not only supports a worthy cause but also celebrates the spirit of country racing and community engagement.
