LONDON, ONT. This weekend it won’t just be men and their horses racing at the Hanover Raceway, there will be races just for women drivers. “So we’ve got the OLG Ontario Women’s Driving Championship with five races exclusively for female drivers on Saturday, and our partners at Dresden will have them on Sunday for five more races,” says Steve Fitzsimmons, general manager of the Hanover Raceway. Eight female drivers will compete this weekend in the inaugural Women’s Championship, with some proceeds and drivers earnings being donated to the Canadian Cancer Society for cervical and breast cancer research.

This Saturday (July 17) at 1:30 p.m., Hanover Raceway is set host the first five legs of the OLG Ontario Women s Driving Championship, with the top female drivers in Ontario set to square off in battle, for a chance to be crowned the champion.
This two-day event, with Dresden Raceway holding the final five legs on Sunday, July 18 at 1:00 p.m., is a fundraising initiative for the Canadian Cancer Society for Cervical Cancer at Hanover Raceway and Harness The Hope at Dresden Raceway, two worthy causes that the drivers in the event are happy to support. I m honoured and excited to be involved in this event and to help raise money for two great causes. I ve had family members and friends that have been affected by Cancer. It s a horrible disease and it will be great to one day find a cure, said driver Pam Forgie.
