Track racing at Washington Park Velodrome in Kenosha, WI begins tonight. Everyone who has raced there knows what a fun track Kenosha is, and what a great atmosphere it has, so I highly recommend checking it out. It's only a short drive from Chicago. Here's a copy of the email from Len Cabaltera, the race director:
"The Washington Park Velodrome will begin its 82nd year of operation with the Tuesday Night race series beginning on May 19. Racing began at the Velodrome in 1927 and continues on. “The Kenosha track has been the training ground for many of our countries’ top riders past and present” states Len Cabaltera, Race Director, “Our focus is to continue developing riders to race at the National and international levels.”
The Tuesday Races series begins on Tuesday May 19 and continues until August 25th. Registration opens at 6 pm and racing begins at 7 pm. The categories includes Junior 10-14, 15-18, Men’s , Women’s, Masters 30+ and Masters 40+. The full race schedule per category is listed on the website. Special events throughout the year are Mayor’s cup 75 lap points race, Bob Pfarr Memorial 150 lap Points Race, The Kenosha News Junior Trophy Race..
The Tuesday night series is sanctioned by the American Track Racing Association, with support of the Wisconsin Cycling Association. Other events include a Monday night stock bike program beginning June 15 and Wednesday night Masters Program beginning May 6.

how do they know the track will last for 82 years?
"The Washington Park Velodrome will begin its 82 year of operation"
It's a phrase meaning "has been in operation for the past 81 years and is now beginning its 82 year" of operation.
