On Sunday, August 5, 2012 the National Capital Region Harness Horse Association in conjunction with Rideau Carleton Entertainment Centre is presenting its fifth annual Night of Champions.
There are numerous fundraising activities during the evening with all proceeds supporting the Shepherds of Good Hope. The night will be featuring Memorial races honouring some of the Ottawa Valleys racing pioneers.
In addition, there will be three non-betting Future Stars races as well as a Trot Under Saddle. Once again this year, the main event on the card is the Coville Cup Drivers Challenge.
