Hope things work out and they find a interested party going forward. Be shame if it would close. Place has become one of the best tracks in the midwest.

I haven't heard much about Spoon River this year. I was wondering how it was going with the new owners.

When that track is prepped right it's one of the best tracks around.

Hope Cloyd will be Ok.

HH25, It looks like Spoon River is going to be back in action for 2024.

Wonderful news Kid. Don't know much about the new promoter but glad someone took interest.

Glad they are able to resume weekly racing. From what I read before, they were still going to do specials and not close completely. Apparently Denney's own it, and Cloyd had a lease to promote it. But it also said if anyone wants to purchase the Track, to contact them.
