Show your connection to a landmark of New Jersey sport with this Garden State Park Hoodie / Sweatshirt. Called The Garden by racing fans, the Cherry Hill track opened in 1942 and became known for signature events including the Jersey Derby, Garden State Stakes and Gardenia Stakes. Its history includes the 1977 grandstand fire, a return in 1985 and a final race in 2001. A lasting tribute for former visitors, horse racing enthusiasts and collectors who follow the changing story of Cherry Hill.
Garden State Park was a harness and thoroughbred racetrack in Cherry Hill, Camden County, New Jersey. It opened on July 18, 1942, after wartime material shortages delayed construction. Developer Eugene Mori built much of its Georgian-style grandstand from wood after authorities seized structural steel. Known as “the Garden,” it became a prominent racing venue, hosting the Jersey Derby, Garden State Stakes and Gardenia Stakes. The track helped spur entertainment and commercial development in the area, which was then Delaware Township and is now Cherry Hill Township. A major fire destroyed the grandstand on April 14, 1977, killing three people, but the track later returned with a new steel-and-glass grandstand financed by Robert Brennan. It reopened on April 1, 1985. Spend A Buck won the Jersey Derby there on May 27, 1985, after victories in the Kentucky Derby, Cherry Hill Mile and Garden State Stakes; the Jersey Derby purse and bonus set a record at the time. The final race was held on May 3, 2001, after 58 years. Demolition began in 2003, and the site became a mixed-use town center with retail and residential areas.
