Grand River Raceway is proud to announce they have been named on the 2022 list of Best Workplaces in Retail & Hospitality!
First awarded in 2019 as a Great Place to Work, and then later recognized on the 2020 and 2021 list of Best Workplaces™ in Retail and Hospitality, the organization is thrilled that they continued to receive incredibly positive feedback about employment at Grand River Raceway and The GrandWay Events Centre which is owned and operated by Grand River Agricultural Society (GRAS). This award comes after all the changes that COVID brought with staffing changes. The raceway is back open at full capacity since June 3.
