FOXTON RACING CLUB.
COURSE IMPROVEMENTS,
The Committee of the local Racing Club believe in keeping their course thoroughly up-to-date in every particular and this year will spend from ,£9OO to ,£IOOO on improvements. The local course is recognised by the sporting fraternity to be one of the most up-to-date in the Dominion for the size of the Club, and the new committee intend to keep it so. The improvements to be undertaken include the installation of a silent totalisator, and to do this it will be necessary to enlarge the present totalisator house to double its size. New lavatories, with concrete floors and water laid on, are to be built both inside and outside, and a ladies room will be erected in the stand. The lawn aud bird-cage in front of the stewards’ stand aie both to be enlarged. For some time past the Club has been top-dressing the course, and provided the weather is satisfactory the whole of the course will be completed this year.
