John Groen is the VP of marketing at Canterbury Park. The racetrack and event venue was forced to limit capacity due to COVID-19 last year. He says today's news announcing a timeline to end COVID-19 restrictions, was a long time coming. "First text out was to concert people, Jerry Braam and Twin Cities Summer Jam to say it's officially on, but also our live racing team couldn't be more excited," says Groen.
