Du Quoin Race Park

Horse racing experts may agree that Illinois' Du Quoin State Fairground is the area's earliest and most successful reclamation project. It was in 1939 when William R. Hayes bought the Old Black Gold Strip Mine that joined his original 30-acre fairground tract and set to work filling, leveling, and landscaping - transplanting 1400 trees around the area.
