RACE GUIDE

The people of the Oneida Indian Nation are proud to welcome you to our ancestral lands and to Turning Stone Resort • Casino for the Turning Stone Races.

The Oneida people have always emphasized the importance of hospitality and welcoming our guests into the home. It is this cultural training that infl uences all our operations, including those at Turning Stone.

Our dedication to the area, combined with the hard work of our employees, make us a top tourist attraction in New York. Just recently The Lodge, The Tower, and Wildfl owers restaurant, all earned the prestigious AAA Four Diamond Awards. Turning Stone also offers award-winning golf experiences and spa treatments, and the best in fi ne dining and top-notch entertainment.

This event allows us to introduce more people to the beauty that is Central New York. This region, located at the foothills of the Adirondack Mountains, is marked by stunning scenery, rich historical sites, and vibrant cultural attractions; and it is all framed within four seasons. Turning Stone is located within driving distance from the Baseball Hall of Fame in Cooperstown, the Finger Lakes Wineries, and the Bouckville Antiques community.

We are excited to be hosting this event for the fi rst time. We look forward to greeting you with our traditional words of welcome (“Shekóli”) and warmly welcoming you to our beautiful ancestral lands, and to our fabulous Resort.
