Every Woodbine employee is trusted and empowered within the organization. With this empowerment also comes responsibility. When mistakes happen, we expect our people to be accountable and correct the situation proactively. That goes for the successes too – which are always to be celebrated.

FUEL THE FUN AND PASS IT ON

Generating fun and excitement is a number one priority. We create the energized experiences that light a lasting flame – and keep our guests happy and energized all day long, whether in a beautiful race-view dining room, a relaxed lounge or at the rails watching their favourites round the bend.

That brave, vibrant culture translates to a dynamic and thrilling experience at every touch point of our organization… for every guest who plays, dines and wagers with us.
