Bus Trip to Del Mar Thoroughbred RacetrackJCC EXCURSIONS - July 2023

Let's go to where the “surf meets the turf” at exciting Del Mar Race Track! It was back in the summer of 1937 when
Bing Crosby and his Hollywood pals put the finishing touches on their getaway spot down by the sea. And it
hardly took any time at all for a tradition to be born and carried on, one that, to this day, echoes the relaxed idea
that “nobody’s in a hurry but the horses.” In 1993, the track unveiled its fully completed $80­ million reconstruction, a bit of work that allowed the past to linger among modern ­day amenities. The tour includes roundtrip deluxe motorcoach transportation, lunch on your own at the racetrack, and admission to the clubhouse at the Del Mar Thoroughbred Races.
