Alberta Downs under new ownership
After years of sitting mostly empty, Alberta Downs is set to undergo somewhat of a makeover.
The facility, which features the only one mile track in western Canada, recently came under new ownership. Local business people Kurt and Kyla Belich as well as Ross Morrison took possession last week.
The trio presented to Lacombe County council on Thursday, Morrison saying the first step is cleaning it up.
“It’s going to provide some extra jobs for some contractors in the community and we are going to try and keep all our contractors local so we can support them as much as we can,” he said.
