22.01.2022 "Working Bee' at Laura Turf Club over Easter. This magnificent annual country Race Meeting is attended by an ever increasing number of people from all "walks of life" and from all places around the country and also some visitors from overseas. What many of us didn't realise is that this Racing Event and the Rodeo Event rely so heavily on their Committee Members and volunteers to prepare for these annual events and to work and ensure they run successfully. This Easter, from F...riday 10th April to Monday 13th April, the LATC Committee has organised a Working Bee at the Laura Race Club. We intend to: *Do mowing/slashing. *Repair & replace outside running rails. *Do basic maintenance/repair jobs. *Do a general cleanup of the grounds. Why not join us for a camp which involves some voluntary work and some good fellowship. Call Graham Love on 0418 476 966 for more information. See more

12.01.2022 New screening has arrived for the 2021 races.... big thanks from the club to our amazing sponsors

11.01.2022 It is with regret that the executive committee of the Laura Amateur Turf Club have come to the decision to call off the 2020 Laura Race Weekend in June. With what is happening in our Country today and The Cape being in lock down we had no other choice. The working bee to be held over the Easter Long Weekend will now be postponed, we will reschedule at a later date when we know how this whole saga pans out. Keep safe everyone and we will be back in 2021 even bigger and better.... Jenni Sorensen Secretary LATC
