Public Invited to Open House May 15
Construction is expected to begin in late May. The Maryland Stadium Authority will manage the construction project, which was awarded to Turner Construction Co. of Baltimore.
The improvements to the racetrack, including irrigation capabilities, are designed to improve the safety and viability of the course. These capital improvements will also allow the venue to meet requirements for the first Fair Hill CCI5* Three-Day Event, slated for October 2020, making it one of just a handful of sites worldwide to host a premier 5-star three-day eventing competition, and only the second in the United States.
In addition to the stadium authority, the department is working closely with partners Fair Hill International Inc., the Fair Hill Foundation and the Maryland Horse Industry Board.
The Maryland Park Service has scheduled a public open house to showcase plans May 15 from 6 p.m. to 8 p.m. at Walls Hall on the grounds of Fair Hill Natural Resources Management Area. Informational updates will also be posted online.
