Junior jockeys have a "Preakness" of their own with a lively race! 

Youngsters race to the finish line on bouncy hippity hops at MECU's Pee Wee Preakness, on Tuesday, May 11 in Federal Hill Park, located on Warren Street near Battery Avenue.  Festivities begin at 11:30 a.m.  

Children charge out of the starting gate for the big race at noon. After the races, the tykes catch their breath while enjoying their packed lunches and exciting entertainment.

Presented by Mayor Stephanie Rawlings-Blake, MECU's Pee Wee Preakness is produced by the Baltimore Office of Promotion & The Arts and Preakness Celebration.

Most of the participants are from the area day care centers, schools and recreation centers, but walk-in entries are welcome.
