Facelift coming to local horse racing
VICTORVILLE • It’s the last month of betting on the horses from the 20-year-old satellite wagering facility at the San Bernardino County Fairgrounds.
Come Dec. 26, the venue will be moving around the corner to a building roughly a third the size, but with new LCD televisions, high definition broadcasting and a newly remodeled interior.
