Columbus, OH — Visitors heading to central Ohio for Thursday’s Little Brown Jug are urged to call their hotels ahead of time to make sure they are open for business.
Many of the hotels in both Delaware and Columbus are without power due to the effects of the windstorm produced by Hurricane Ike on Sunday.
Racing was held on Monday at Delaware with the aid of generators. As of Tuesday morning, electricity was still out on the Fairgrounds.
