25.01.2022 The Laverton Racing Club is urgently seeking the services of a volunteer to drive the free bus offered to patrons of the day. The bus makes several trips during the day from the town centre to the racecourse.

24.01.2022 Good luck this weekend to the Leonora Race Club. Hope you have a successful meeting

21.01.2022 Hey all those coming to the Races tomorrow. Nigal and I and our helpers didn't get to put up the shade sails today. Will be warm tomorrow but not hot. Limited shade but we'll put up what we have. Sorry. Also need people to walk the track and collect any rocks they see in the morning. This is a must.

20.01.2022 Hey All. Sorry for posting this late, the Races for 2019 are on Saturday October 26th.

19.01.2022 Hey all. Due to the lifting of COVID 19 restrictions here in WA the races are back on. RWWA has said that country racing can recommence so we are looking at the end of October for our race meeting. I'll update the page with a firm date when the new calendar is released but the date was Saturday the 24th October.

16.01.2022 Hey all. The Race meeting is next Saturday and the committee needs help. We have to clean the rooms and ablutions and rock pick. At this stage track is covered in rocks and it is going to have another layer of top soil put on thanks to Desert Sands but after that we will need 6 or so people to walk the track and pick up any and all rocks. I'll keep you all informed, probably towards the end of the week. All help will be appreciated

15.01.2022 Race date for 2017 is Saturday October 21st. Come along for another fantastic, family friendly day.

15.01.2022 It is unfortunate that due to COVID 19 RWWA is not funding any country race meetings in 2020 so there not be a meeting in October.. sorry all but watch this space

13.01.2022 Thank you to all who turned out to yesterdays Race day and Laverfest celebrations. It was mostly a great day however I forgot to thank the sponsors so I have posted them on this page. please accept my apologies for this. All of the main sponsors went over and above just monetary contributions and made sure they attended in force, thank you. Gold Fields Australia donated staff and cranes to relocate the buildings and tower and for those lucky people who won, the bullock. C&A ...Taylor Grading assited with the track preparations and Desert sands also assisted with water, a loader and diesel. The shire of Laverton assisted with the clean up and track also. Thanks to all. The staff of the Desert Inn Hotel went over and above what was required of them and so did the Desert Deli staff. and Cass for running around. A special really big thanks to Denise and Jack for your efforts, they were more than what we set ou to do and you 2 stayed until the end. The committee of Robin Prentice, Thomas B Walker and Bianca Simone Dixon did a great job assisting. The one who I believe should have been mentioned is NIGAL FISHER who gave up about 3 weeks of pay to help me get everything ready. Sorry Nigal. Thanks also to the local contributors both volunteers and businesses. I will apologise for the ticket office being closed for a short period in the evening however it was not the reponsibility of the hotel staff or the Race club committee to operate this or the Bar after 7pm. There was a mix up and we ended up doing this, with the help of Gary Buckmiester and Ross Norrie from Leonora. The bar was excellently run and those who we thought were on the edge or had too much, we offered them waters, if they did not want it or drink it they weren't geting served any more alcohol. All in all it was a great day, a couple of minor incidents but everyone was well behaved and I think they had a great time. Give yourselves a round of applause. An please openly thank the sponsors as attached. With them and you all it wouldn't happen

10.01.2022 I would like to say a really big thank you to all that attended the Laverton race day. So many people make an effort. From the sponsors to the volunteers and all who attend. The men did ok but all the ladies looked gorgeous. Congrats to the best dressed man Tim Brewer and woman Renee Blair. And to all the other Ladies that made an effort. Our locals stand up like injured Rex Ryles, Clint Taylor, Les Smith, Peter and Patrick Hill, Nigal Fisher who is an absolute trooper consi...dering he was ill, Tom and Bianca, St Johns ambulance Vollies the Laverton Shire crew, Laverton Stores, Desert Deli and Desert Inn hotel and Laverton Chalets, the Laverton Sports Club, Laverton Stores, Boomers Village and anyone else I forgot to mention. It goes to show communities like Laverton can bond together to make events happen. Thank you Laverton and lets have another great one next year. See more

03.01.2022 Hey everyone. I apologise for not posting this earlier, I thought I had. There is a AGM for the Laverton Race Club this Wednesday evening 25th at 6pm at the Desert Inn Hotel. I urge all who have an interest in maintaining this vitally important annual event to attend.

02.01.2022 LAVERTON RACE DAY SATURDAY OCTOBER 24TH. The first race will be at 12 midday and the event will proceed from there. There will be a bus leaving from the centre of town at 11.30 UNFORTUNATELY There will not be any 2 UP as we haven't been able to locate a ring master and the AFL Grand final is on however due to other constraints the Grand Final will not be shown at the Race Course.... There will not be entertainment for the kids that come out neither sorry. We have been fortunate enough to be able to have this meeting so lets make this one as good as the ones in the past. It is a short day but it will be a great day. See you all there.. See more

01.01.2022 So sad to see. We certainly don't want this to happen to Laverton Race club.
