family,” says JoAnn Mineer, a long-standing member of the Claremont West End
Auxiliary. “We have put together a race package that includes admission, valet
parking and lunch in the Club House Plaza. And, what’s great is that while you
are enjoying yourself you will also be raising money for the at-risk children
in our local communities.”

“Claremont West End Auxiliary fundraises for us throughout the year. The excitement of thoroughbred racing at such
a beautiful venue is an enjoyable experience.

help make brighter tomorrows for the underprivileged children in our
communities.”
