Olds boasts one of the finest racetracks in the province. The sheet metal fence around the half mile track was widened to 50 feet in 1995, and the outer fence was replaced in the spring of 1996 with a white plastic rail, making it very eye-catching, clean-looking, and highlights the wagons as they race around the track. A special sand mixture was placed in the infield to improve footing, and rodeo cowboys have described it as one of the best infields for competitions. Heavy horse tie rails are located at the south end of the infield, and have proven to be useful not only at Fair-time, but whenever livestock needs to be tied up before entering the ring.
This area of the fairgrounds has been used as RV parking for the Good Samaritans Convention and the 1999 Alberta Seniors Games. The Eckville Pony Chuckwagon Association have also held pre-season races as fundraisers for the Horizon School in Olds. The big chuckwagons often use our racetrack for exercising and training their rigs, as well as mock race practices.
