What is Woodbine Entertainment Group?
(Formerly known as the Ontario Jockey Club) The Ontario Jockey Club was originally incorporated in 1881. In 1971, under a restructuring arrangement, it became a company incorporated without share capital and a non-for-profit organization. Shareholders at the time were offered secured debentures in exchange for their shares. Its defined objective under its not-for-profit status is to generate the revenues necessary in order to provide horse racing of the highest quality, at the best facilities possible, for the benefit of the public and all industry participants. The Corporation’s name was changed to Woodbine Entertainment Group to better reflect the realities of today’s progressive operations. Woodbine Entertainment is involved in thoroughbred racing, standardbred racing, slot machine operations, ancillary services such as food and beverage, and the delivering of reacting product through such services as The Racing Network, Champions Teletheatre Network and Horse Player Interactive.
