TruGreen announces partnership with Churchill Downs

MEMPHIS, Tenn. -- TruGreen has announced its partnership with Churchill Downs, home of the Kentucky Derby. TruGreen has joined Churchill Downs as a proud partner caring for 37 acres of turf at the facility.

Located in Louisville, Kentucky, and known as the home of the Kentucky Derby, Churchill Downs Racetrack holds thoroughbred horse racing events three times a year - spring, september and fall. The racetrack spans 147 acres and features a one-mile dirt racetrack and a seven-furlong (7/8 mile) turf course for racing.

"TruGreen treats several high-profile areas of turf at Churchill Downs," said Region Commercial Sales Manager, Mark Rollman, Indiana Region (which also encompasses central Illinois and Kentucky). "One of the most high-profile areas we assist with is the turf track that sits right inside the dirt track. Churchill Downs typically runs two to three races per race day on the turf surfaces throughout the year."
