One of the county's main attractions is located in Farmington. Finger Lakes Gaming and Racetrack opened May 23, 1962 as a thoroughbred horse racing facility. Over the years, it has hosted some of the greatest thoroughbreds in the history of the sport. The facility underwent a major overhaul in February of 2004 when 1000 video lottery gaming machines were added. For schedules and more information click on www.fingerlakesracetrack.com.

Horse farms and the amenities needed to support the race track have also spurred additional business. For visitors, Copper Creek Farm teaches horseback riding or you can enjoy a leisurely afternoon ride through its beautiful wooded setting. Appointments are necessary, call 585-289-4441.
