Racino at Canterbury Park

Racino at Canterbury Park

Canterbury Park remains committed to winning legislative approval of new gaming, such as slot machines and video poker, in order to increase purses for live racing and make important investments in Minnesota's horse industry.

Despite inaction on the Racino, gaming in Minnesota continues to expand. In the last several years, internet wagering on horse racing and card games has exploded, tribal casinos have opened poker rooms, and local bars received the authority to sponsor Texas Hold'em tournaments. While our competitors have been expanding their operations, Canterbury Park continues to be restricted in the number and types of games we can provide.

The 2006 legislative is underway. Let your legislators know that investing in Minnesota's horse industry benefits our local communities!
