It won’t be as busy as the halcyon days of its biggest meeting of the year, but Echuca Harness Racing club is geared for its annual New Year’s night meeting on Friday.
A crowd cap of 1000 patrons has been placed on the meeting meaning it will be the best attended meeting since the COVID-19 restrictions were introduced in March this year.
As in the past there will be off-track entertainment, including live music and a punters' club, plus catering.
Feature events will be the Moama Bowling Club’s New Year Cup and the Frank and Carmel Ryan Memorial Pace.
Club secretary Hope Gamble has stressed members of the public wanting to attend the meeting have to make a booking by 6pm on New Year’s Eve.
Booking can be made by phoning 5482 2036, emailing echuca@hrv.org.au or on Facebook.
