Kaduna Park residents brought in the Easter weekend with the Residents’ Racing Night at Pakenham Racing Club.

Despite the chilly air, last Thursday night’s antics at Pakenham Racing Club were fun for kids and adults alike, with races, face painting, arts and crafts, jumping castles and a special visit from the Easter Bunny!

One lucky family also won the chance to name a race and to present the winner’s trophy to the winning horse owner, trainer or jockey. This was a rare opportunity to be part of the post-race action at the winner’s bar, thanks to Parklea Development. The winning family was the Speirs family, who awarded their trophy to the winner of the “Hatzis Charter” race.

A big thank you to everyone who attended the Residents’ Racing Night. It was a great way for Kaduna Park residents to mingle with their neighbours and make new friends while bringing in the Easter weekend. Parklea, who sponsored the event, hope to host another family night at Pakenham Racing Club later this year, so keep an eye on the Kaduna Park Facebook for updates on upcoming events!
