“I remember in my first year, one of the early business courses I took, the prof came into the room and the first thing he said was: I’m going to give you two words that will be the best advice you ever had going forward in business. He wrote on the blackboard: Confront Reality. I can’t think of a better strategy for our industry than to really focus on confronting reality. All too often, we reminisce about the good old days and all too often we dream about better days through wishful thinking. Frankly, I think all who see a future for racing have to take a leadership role and champion change and accept the fact that things must change. I, for one, would much rather be at the head of that curve than at the back of the curve. In dog sled racing, the lead dog always has the best view. So, I never want to be the trailing dog in any venture.”
— Hugh Mitchell chief executive officer Western Fair Association
