MEMPHIS, Mo. (MArch 20, 2002) - Racing in Scotland County is right around the corner! The Scotland County Fairboard has been working very hard on the facility and they have made great progress on many projects. The new front stretch safety fence is near completion with landscaping and work on the grandstands themselves close behind. They are adding signal lights to the corners, widening the pit road entrance at the check in booth, and relocating the flag stand as well. Anyone wanting to help can contact members of the fairboard to volunteer, (660-328-6633 Phil Aylward, President). All help is greatly appreciated.
