How would we evacuate our horses in the event of a wildfire with traffic like this?

On Saturday, September 5, Galway Downs hosted the ASICS Cool Breeze Invitational event, bringing significant traffic to the area. The video in the link below shows the impact that just one event had on traffic and raises concerns about what could happen if Galway Downs’ proposed changes are approved by Riverside County:

- How would we evacuate our horses in the event of a wildfire with traffic like this?
- How will this affect emergency response times?
- Will weekends like this become the norm in what is supposed to be a protected rural area?
- Why is Riverside County still allowing Galway Downs to host these unpermitted events?
