Saturday nights in August are about to get a lot more exciting at the Fort Erie Racetrack.
Starting August 5th, the track will be making the switch from a Sunday afternoon post to Saturday night twilight racing.
The new calendar will offer live racing every Saturday and Tuesday in August.
In addition to live racing and free concerts, the track will feature the 6th annual Circle the Course fundraiser on August 12th.
Fans will have the opportunity to walk the track, enjoy a free concert and watch the jockey hopper ball race.
Money raised will go the Canadian Cancer Society and fans are also asked to bring non-perishable food donations to help fill a horse trailer with food for Community Outreach Program Erie.
