I enjoy the fact that my job is different every day. One day I’m coming in and working on website material, the next day I’m writing a press release or something like that. One day you’re racing and one day you’re sitting at a desk – so it’s nice that there is that unique aspect of the job where every day it’s something different,” said Antonietta Culic, the manager of Marketing and Media Relations at Fort Erie Race Track.

Born and raised in Fort Erie, Culic stepped into the role of media manager just prior to the 2016 racing meet at the Fort. Armed with a background in marketing and communications, Culic had previously worked as a communications coordinator at McMaster and then as an assistant in public relations with Ontario Power Generation in Niagara.

Culic jumped at the opportunity to work back in Fort Erie, but admits it was a challenging role for her to begin with.
