MISSISSAUGA, ON — Today the Ontario Horse Racing Industry Association (OHRIA) has launched its official website WWW.OHRIA.com. The site will act as a key source of information about the horse racing industry in Ontario.
“We are launching the first phase of the site today,” said Wendy Rinella, Executive Director of OHRIA. “In the future more pages will appear including a members only section so our members can receive up-to-date agenda, minutes and reports from industry committee meetings.”
The Ontario Horse Racing Industry Association (OHRIA) is an umbrella association, which represents all segments of the horse racing industry. OHRIA was formed in 1994 to address the unique challenges facing the industry in a dynamic gaming and entertainment market. The strategic vision of the industry is to be a world-class leader in horse racing and breeding.
Horse racing is the third largest agricultural industry in Ontario, generating over 37,000 full time equivalent jobs. Horse racing is an important part of the agricultural economy and supports the overall provincial economic base.
