A positive attitude towards your brand is essential, and the image that the Albany Racing Club portrays promotes this.
Race days can also be used to assist in leveraging fundraising activities, with ARC race day sponsors such Wallace Engineering recently partnered on TABTouch Ladies Day to raised $2,300 on course which was put towards the Dolly’s Dream Foundation.
