A Night at the Races is an audience-participation event where actual horse races are shown by DVD to recreate the fun and excitement of being at the racetrack.

Each race is announced live and features on-site betting booths.
St. Elizabeth will supply the tables, chairs, tablecloths, and the races. You bring the
food, beverages, and friends.
Three Ways to Participate
1. Buy a Table: Grab 9 of your friends, buy a table for 10, and gallop over to
SEoT to place your bets! *Individual seats are available for $25*
Walk-ins will cost $300 for a table; or $30 for an individual seat
2. Purchase a Horse! For $25 you can own a horse in one of the races.
Winning horse owners receive $100 cash and their horse will be included in
the Grand Championship Race for a chance to win $1,000!
All horses must be sold by Friday, April 26th. Horses will NOT be on sale the
night of the races. As a horse owner, you come up with the horse’s name, the
jockey’s name, and the trainer’s name to be listed in the official race-night
program (names subject to approval). *You don’t have to be present to win*
3. Become a Sponsor! See sponsorship packages below

How does it work?
You will receive a program which lists the races and all the horses. You will place
bets on any horse you choose – one race at a time – at the designated betting
windows. We will watch pre-recorded horse races on the big screen and you will
WIN CASH if your horse comes in first place!
There are 11 races, with the 11th being the Grand Championship composed of all of the
winning horses from the previous 10 races.
Betting windows will be open before each race and players can bet on any horse in that
particular race. All bets must be in $2 increments (CASH ONLY!) and for the win only.
Once the betting windows are closed, the cash payouts for each horse will be
computed and announced. St. Elizabeth will keep 50 percent of the pot from each race
and the remaining 50 percent will be divided equally and paid out to those who bet on
the winning horse.
MORE FUN!
The night will also include the following:
● 50/50 Raffle
● Pick-a-Prize Raffle
● Specialty Raffles
