The Speedway first opened in 1965. From 1977 It was owned by the family of C. J. Richards, a founder of the Champlain Valley Racing Association. In 2011 it was put up for sale. After a period of uncertainty as to whether it would continue to be used for racing, it was purchased by the owners of Lebanon Valley Speedway in West Lebanon, New York.[1]
