Many of these are now favorites in the United States and several other countries.

This multi-cultural Mexican heritage is the heart and soul of El Cisne Restaurant. Each dish and drink is prepared and served by our highly experienced staff in a modern contemporary setting that is both elegant and relaxed. We hope you enjoy your experience and thank you for visiting us!

Advocacy

A REQUEST FOR YOU TO SEND A NOTE OF SUPPORT FOR RILLITO PARK FOUNDATION

A bill in the Arizona Senate has been introduced (Senate Bill 1464). Sponsored by Senator Livingston and Co-Sponsored by Senators Mesnard and Leach, the bill is now a striker that simply levels the playing field and strikes the 140 day racing requirement and allows Rillito Race Track to operate OTB parlors in Arizona.

It would be most helpful if you could send a quick note to the 30 Arizona Senators and 60 members of the House of Representatives asking them to support Senate Bill 1464 and vote YES. This is simple corrective language in the legislation and will help sustain Rillito Race Track into the future. We have been asked to send all letters of support today if possible, as the vote will be taken as early as Monday.

If you need specific details on the bill, please contact Jaye Wells, President of Rillito Park Foundation (520) 360-2049.

Thank you for your continued support of Rillito Park Foundation as we continue to preserve the historic racing facility Rillito Race Track, the birthplace of modern quarter horse racing.
