Dear friends, Thank you for your...

Dear friends,

Thank you for your continued support of the Off-Track Betting documentary. I am excited to say that phase of production - filming - is underway.

The fundraising campaign is underway to continue to get this very important, very special project to the screen. This film is unique, it is timely, and it will shed light on a very important story.

The closure of Off-Track Betting affected tens of thousands of people, businesses, and horses. And yet no one is telling their stories.

To be part of this film is to be part of something historic. Please enjoy the new clip posted above. I'm sure you will.

This is the film Albany doesn't want you to see. When OTB was shut down, thousands of civil servants lost their jobs and retirees lost their promised health care.

Join the fight, please generously support OTB Documentary film, so that we can get Albany to give back these benefits.

Don't let the Governor sweep this story under the rug.

Thank you.

It is a privilege to be able to support the creation of a document of this calibre to tell a story that could easily be forgotten without it.
