This post presents an index to the research gathered since 2009 that tells the stories of Maine’s Lost Trotting Parks. Between 1890 and 1930 there were overtime at least 90 trotting parks that were registered with the National Trotting Association. Over the years there may have been slightly over 100 Maine communities with trotting parks. Today there are two private tracks and eight agricultural fairs offering harness racing. Demonstration racing occurs at Blue Hill, Cornish and Pembroke.
