First Night at the Races? Here are a few things you should know…

1. Bring CASH!!

2. There are 8 virtual races, 10 horses in each race. You will be provided with the list of horses in each race. If you own a horse and your horse wins its race, you win $30. 

3. Anyone can bet on any horse in each race! Bets are $2 each CASH ONLY. A portion of each bet goes towards JLSC and the rest gets divided evenly between all of the bets on the winning horse. For instance, say the payout for the race was $100 and that 5 people bet on Horse #2 and only 2 people bet on Horse #4 to win. If Horse #2 wins, each person that bet on #2 claims $20. If Horse #4 wins, each person that bet on #4 claims $50.

4. There is no limit to the number of horses you can bet on in a given race. You can also bet multiple times on the same horse.

5. The 8th race is an Auction Race. Ownership and naming rights for each horse goes to the highest bidder in the auction. The highest bidder gets first choice of horse number. Then, the next horse is auctioned off…and so on. Get some friends together and co-own a horse! We will also be raffling off a horse in this race so you can win a horse for a much smaller fee! Be sure to get your raffle tickets before the 7th race.

6. We will also have silent auction, raffle baskets, and 50/50 tickets available (CASH or CREDIT). So swing by the tables and check on your items after you place your bets in each race!

7. Doors and bar (open bar!) open at 6:00pm. It is open seating so get there early to get a seat with your friends. If you have a table of 8, email [email protected] to reserve a table.

8. Dinner starts at 6:15pm and the races start around 7:00pm.

9. Casual dress code and most importantly, HAVE FUN!!!
