Quarantine End Message From Hawthorne 1/11/13
Dr. Ernst has lifted the quarantine effective at 6:00 am CST on
Sunday, January 13th. Dr. Ernst has not put any restrictions here
in Illinois, but would encourage anyone shipping to another State,
to confirm acceptance prior to leaving Hawthorne Race Course.
Effective with the lifting of the quarantine, 2 year olds are prohibited
on the backside for a period of 30 days due to their susceptibility to stress.
The ITHA, State vet, and management will review this procedure in 30 days
to determine a date when they would be allowed on site again. We are
doing this as an additional step to help insure we do not have another
virus incident.
If you have any questions please contact Dawn or me.
I want to thank you all for all your hard work and understanding during
this very difficult time.
Tim Carey
President & General Manager
Hawthorne Race Course
