In 2017, Crazy Day moves into a new era with a new day and a new partner.
Taree-Wingham Race Club is teaming with the Manning River Times and the event has switched to a Saturday – this Saturday, August 19, the day before the running of the Taree Gold Cup.
The cup carnival will start this Friday, August 18, at the Bushland Drive track, where the feature event will be the Hopkins-Livermore Handicap – named in memory of two giants of Mid North Coast Coast racing, Don Hopkins and Ike Livermore.
Crazy Day will be underway from early Saturday. The race club’s Calcutta dinner will be held on the Saturday night leading into Sunday’s cup meeting.
Crazy Day started in 1986 and until this year has always been held on a Thursday.
Manning River Times advertising manager, Kelly Payne said combining two of the area’s major events is a winner for the Times, the race club and the community.
