The panel will also include Brian Straughter, President of Turf Hotels, and Marianne Barker, owner of Impressions and The Dark Horse, who will talk about the outlook for this race meeting from a hotel and local business perspective. This event is part of the Chamber’s new Call to Post Celebration that will feature a series of fan-friendly events one day before the Race Meeting begins.
