SUMMERSIDE RACEWAY
Summerside Raceway is believed to be the oldest, continuously racing track in Canada. Opening day July 1st, 1886 was an exciting day. The featured race held by the Green Bros., was a match race between Hernando and Black Pilot.
The race, according to the 'Island Farmer' of August 30, 1888, drew 5,000 fans although the grandstand only held 500. Black Pilot took the last three heats after losing the first one. The driver of Black Pilot was Charlie Earl and the owner was Mr. Dockendorff. Hernando was driven by P.C. Brown and the owners were Dr. J. A. Gourlie and R. C. McLeod.
Each horse took a quarter of the total gate with the owners of the track taking half. The 'Island Farmer' said that the Green Bros. paid for the cost of the track with their huge crowd.
