Taken from Hokio Beach Rd. the old racecourse grandstand.

1) Racing - from earliest days.

Hoofbeats on the turf have always had a strong appeal and no more so than in the early days when the enjoyment was, perhaps, even greater.

2) Old rivalry between Levin and Weraroa still exists.

Confusing to strangers passing through Levin by rail is the name "Weraroa" on the Post Office immediately opposite the Levin Railway Station. It seems strange that Levin should have a "suburb".
