The City of Swift Current and the Speedy Creek Racing Association have signed a new two-year user agreement, despite rising costs.

 

The agreement will see the races stay at Kinetic Exhibition Park.

 

Insurance premiums and a reported jump in user fees slowed down but didn't stop the two sides from reaching an agreement.  "It was gonna happen," commented a confident City of Swift Current Recreation and Parks Director Dean Robson.  "It just took a little longer than we would have liked.  We had to raise some liability insurance.  There was never a chance we weren't going to get the deal done, it just took a little longer than anticipated."

 

The SCRA held their first race of the season on Saturday.
