algonac speedway
1940-1941
The Algonac Speedway was first the Agricultural and Driving Park Association park, a horse racing track that dates back to the late 1800's. It was used for "hobo racing" and had a grand opening of sorts in July 0f 1941. After a fatal accident the history of the track trails off perhaps also due to the U.S. involvement in World War II in December of that year.
