PIG RACES
The races run Memorial Day through Labor Day from 7:00 PM until typically 9:45 PM. Races run every 15 minutes. The Bearcreek Downs races have raised over $155,000.00 in scholarship funds for local Carbon County students. Scholarship funds are administered by the Red Lodge Public Schools Foundation. Our pigs are raised locally by a family run farm.
