June 27, 2013,from The Meadows
Washington, PA — As The Meadows prepares to celebrate its 50th anniversary on Friday night (June 28), the track is pleased to release a video that documents the track’s early days, as well as some of its greatest moments.
“From A Dream To A Destination” is a 15-minute tribute to those that worked to turn The Meadows from open farmland into the racino it is today. It features vintage footage and photos, much of which hasn’t been seen in five decades.
Jeff Zidek produced and edited the video, which will be featured at the track and on “Meadows Live!” throughout the weekend.

It is part of a series of videos produced to honor the track’s anniversary. For more in the series, see www.youtube.com/meadowsracing.
- Meadows turns back wagering clock for 50th anniversary (Thursday, June 27, 2013)
For Friday’s first two races at The Meadows Racetrack & Casino, bettors will have to focus on win/place/show and daily double rather than the varied exotics menu usually offered. That’s because for those races, the track will turn back the betting clock and offer only those wagers available on June 28, 1963, the track’s opening night.
