Mount Laurel, NJ — Pacing For The Cure is excited to announce that the start of our 2017 tour dates will begin at the Meadowlands Racetrack on Saturday (April 22) from 3-11 p.m.

The event will include a charity walk around the racetrack and evening at the races. We are inviting the surrounding community, our network of supporters, and all harness racing enthusiasts to join us for an evening of fun while raising awareness about Multiple Sclerosis.

Pacing For The Cure is a 501(c) (3) nonprofit organization with a mission to inspire others to join our cause, create hope for MS survivors, and believe that a cure will be found. Pacing For The Cure raises funds to support MS survivor’s medical equipment needs and the necessary cutting edge research by MSRI to find a cure.

All walkers are encouraged to stay for the excitement of world class harness racing featuring some of the top drivers in the country beginning at 7:15 p.m.

After the walk, join us in the Food Court area from 5-6 p.m. for a complimentary education session on harness racing basics including how to read the race program. During this time we will also be offering up two complimentary dinners for two for the evening buffet. Beginning at 6:30 p.m., you can enjoy an elegant buffet dinner in Pink clubhouse dining room with a perfect view of the races and socialize with your team and other participants.
