Ellis Park Community Day

Saturday, August 9 | Community Day

Join us for the annual Community Day at the Races, happening from 10 AM to 4 PM, with all proceeds benefiting the PDJF, an organization that supports injured athletes in the racing community. The day will feature over 30 nonprofit organizations, a National Anthem performance by the GRADSA Choir, and fun attractions like Jockey 360, where jockeys snap photos for charity.

Families can enjoy the Kids Zone, including a birdhouse-building activity for Habitat for Humanity, while adults explore a silent auction, pet adoptions, a book signing by Kim Wickens, and a chance to leave their mark on a living mural. There's something for everyone—and it’s all for a great cause!

General admission is free. Racing is open to all ages. Must be 18 or older to wager on races. Must be 21 or older to gamble. Please play responsibly. Gambling Problem? Call 1-800-GAMBLER.
