Can I collect race information from participants in Wisconsin? What are the requirements?
To collect race information from participants in Wisconsin, you must comply with the requirements set forth by the Wisconsin Division of Gaming [1.1][1.2][3.3]. The Wisconsin Division of Gaming requires that a host track proposing to be a host track for simulcasting purposes shall provide written notification to the division at least 10 days prior to sending its races to out-of-state guest track locations. Notification to the division shall include the identification and location of the out-of-state guest tracks, the manner in which the pools will be formed at the guest track, and copies of all simulcast contracts with each out-of-state guest track [3.3].
It is important to note that the Wisconsin Division of Gaming has specific requirements for race track operators or associations making any change pertaining to the racetrack itself, or the erection or demolition of any structure or the remodeling of any structure which is to be used as a part of the facilities for conducting a race meeting must first receive the approval of the division, if such change, erection, demolition or remodeling causes a change in value in excess of $10,000 [1.2].
