Presque Isle Downs and Casino is hosting its first T-Rex Night at the Races to raise money for a non-profit organization.<\/p>\n
Thursday night, between the 4th and 5th race, T-Rexs will head to the starting line, and a child could win a prize for picking the winner.<\/p>\n
The event is in honor of Arienne Cox a jockey who was severely injured during a race last September.<\/p>\n
Money raised will go to Canter PA a non profit dedicated to rehoming retired racehorses from Pennsylvania.<\/p>\n
When they get here, we will hand them Little handouts for them that have all the T-Rex names and the colors and the numbers, said Erin Wienczkowski, marketing coordinator for Presque Isle Downs. They will stop at a promo desk and pick up one of these. Well also have little cards for them with numbers, so they coordinate with the color too.<\/p>\n
Smileys Ice Cream truck and CheesErie food truck will be on site, serving sweet treats and delicious food all evening.<\/p>\n
