Arapahoe Park Summer Meet Canceled, Officials Hopeful To Race In The Fall

AURORA, CO–APRIL 23, 2024–After the Colorado Horse Racing Commission had issued 'conditional approval' for the traditional summer meet at Arapahoe Park earlier this month, the conclusion of a special meeting on Monday (April 22) is the track will not conduct a Summer Meet in 2024.

The conditional approval required that the racetrack get a "Safe for Occupancy" approval from Arapahoe County on barns and buildings located on the backstretch.

During an inspection last year, Arapahoe County officials flagged several plumbing and electrical issues. Seasonal employees hired by the Division of Racing Events cannot be cleared to work there until the county issues a 'certificate of occupancy'.
