Woodbine BackstretchVacate Notice
The Woodbine race office sent notice to all trainers of the date by which all horses should be vacated from backstretch.
The final Woodbine thoroughbred race date is Sunday, December 11 and all horses and horsemen are asked to vacate the backstretch by 4pm on Wednesday, December 14.
The following was also stated on a notice to the trainers:
Trainers are asked to ensure that their shedrows and all stalls are thoroughly cleaned before leaving for the winter. Trainers leaving uncleaned stalls will be fined $100 per stall.
Any unpaid accounts (Environmental Surcharges or Horseman's Bookkeeper) will impact stall allocations for trainers in 2006.
Dormitory residents may leave their vehicles at the Dormitory #1 lot with the written permission of Donna Duda (416-798-8747). Unapproved vehicles may be removed at WEG's discretion.
Trainers may store their equipment in the green
storage bins. Be advised that these bins may be moved and stacked as needed to accommodate construction and/or maintenance projects. Access to these bins will be restricted through the winter and stored equipment is likely to shift with bin movement.
All horsemen are advised not to leave any valuable or expensive items, such as saddles and other tack, at Woodbine over the winter months. The security of these items is not guaranteed.
Effective December 17, 2005 and running up to February 12, 2006 the stable areas will be closed and off-limits to all horsemen or visitors. Horsemen, employees, suppliers or other visitors should not enter the barn areas without express, prior approval from the Director of Backstretch Operations. Visitors to the Race Office or Stall Office must first obtain clearance from the East Gate Security Office. The East entrance will be sealed nightly to all nonessential and non-emergency traffic between the hours of 6 p.m. and 6 a.m.
As of November 30, more races were Fridays remained at 10 races and two races added to the 2005 Woodbine racing were added on both Saturdays and

ing in November.
