Barn Tour at Fraser Downs this Saturday September 24 2011

If you like horses and Standardbred racing you might be interested in the open house at the Fraser Downs backstretch this Saturday September 24 2011. Address is 17740 62 Avenue. You get there from 176th Street. Turn east bound on 62nd Avenue and follow it along till nearly the end. There is a parking lot at the backstretch on the right hand side. That said it is usually packed full of cars and horse trailers from the people who work in the barn. Might be easier to park across the street at the Agriplex parking lot.

Barn tours start at 10:30am. Or thereabouts. They were late starting the tours last year because they waited until the qualifying races had finished when there'd be less horse and sulky traffic jams around the barns. I'm not sure what time the last tour goes, maybe noon or one. They close the backstretch at 2pm so to be safe you want to be there no later than noon to get on a tour. They have about 15 people or so in a tour and several backstretch employees leading the tours.

There is a lunch between 11:30am and 1:30pm. Last year it was sandwiches that you put together yourself, salads, pickles, and cake. Very nicely done and easily set up for the guests and backstretch workers to help themselves and enjoy.

Update on Il Uk Jo All You Can Eat Sushi

I seem to be getting quite a few hits on a post I wrote last year about all you can eat sushi at Il Uk Jo.

Last summer they were having a late night special for all you can eat sushi on weekends. They've extended it and late night all you can eat sushi is daily now starting at 9pm.

As sushi goes its average. For all you can eat late night its decently priced at $13.99.

They have all you can eat for lunch at $12.99. Dinner is $19.99. Weekends add a dollar.

They have a web page if anyone wants more information. www.ilukjo.ca

They're located on the southwest corner of 152 Street and the Fraser Highway. 15188 Fraser Highway.
