The clubhouse, which seats 550 guest and patio will be open for the 2022 season. The 90-day 2022 live racing season at Eldorado Scioto Downs will start on Thursday, May 12.

Post time for each day will be at 3:15pm due to the continued construction of the grandstand and the need to complete the race card before dark. For more information on the live racing season, visit the Eldorado Scioto Downs by clicking here.
