Racing Regulatory Meeting Dates Set

The Association of Racing Commissioners International (ARCI) will commence its 2017 annual conference on racing integrity, equine welfare and regulatory matters on Tuesday, April 18 through Thursday, April 20, 2017 in Charleston, South Carolina, USA.

The annual ARCI conference is the only annual gathering of the official racing regulatory authorities empowered by law to make and enforce the rules of racing and adjudicate matters pertaining to racing in the United States, Canada, and parts of the Caribbean.

Matters pertaining to equine and canine health and welfare, anti-doping, wagering security and opportunities, rider and driver safety, compulsive gambling, licensing, investigations, and track operations have highlighted past ARCI conferences.

As the agenda for the 2017 meeting has not yet been finalized, proposed topics and speakers may be suggested by emailing Lisa Stahl at [email protected].

Details as to the agenda as well as registration and hotel arrangements will be posted on the ARCI website when available. Registration for the conference will not be open until January, 2017.

The annual ARCI conference is not limited to regulators and is open to anyone involved in the racing industry as an owner, trainer, veterinarian, rider or driver, racetrack official or operator, fan or any other capacity.

A registration fee will be set in January and is charged to defray the cost of the meeting as well as some meals and networking opportunities.

The conference will be held at the Marriott Charleston, 170 Lockwood Boulevard Charleston, South Carolina USA.
