Horses Racing Pigs Racing

I f you do not enjoy going on rides, but still want to enjoy the hot weather before fall comes around, you can watch some horse racing in the Grandstands. It is something that you can sit and enjoy, or if you are feeling lucky, you can bet on the horses, too.

Horse racing in Maryland has been around for decades. If you want more information on horse racing at the fairgrounds, click here. It includes some of the history of horse racing here, and it mentions some of the activities you can do that are also listed on this website.

For something a little different, you can go and watch one of the pig races. There are other farm animals, too. Cows, sheep and chickens, for example. They don't race, but it is fun to visit them. You are even allowed to pet some of them.
