Four towns, four distances
From Madawaska, Grey Rock Casino is 2.3 km away in a straight line. Fort Kent is 25.1 km from Grey Rock in a straight line. Tobique Gaming Center comes next for both towns, at 79.9 km from Madawaska and 86.0 km from Fort Kent.
For Presque Isle and Houlton, the order changes. Presque Isle is 25.6 km in a straight line from Tobique Gaming Center, and 80.1 km from Grey Rock. From Houlton, Tobique is 72.5 km in a straight line. Wolastoq Casino in Fredericton follows at 95.3 km, then Grey Rock at 143.3 km and Casino New Brunswick in Moncton at 228.2 km.
Each figure is a straight line between two OpenStreetMap map points, computed by the guide. None of them is a driving distance, and the site gives no travel times. Tobique distances run from the map point of Tobique First Nation and can be off by 1 or 2 km.

One hour ahead, all year
Under US federal rules, all of Maine is in the Eastern time zone. No part of the state is in the Atlantic zone. Maine law sets the state's time by the federal rule. Daylight saving time runs from 2 AM on the second Sunday of March to 2 AM on the first Sunday of November.
New Brunswick is on Atlantic time and changes its clocks on those same Sundays, at 2 AM. That keeps it one hour ahead of Maine all year. The gap does not shift in spring or autumn.
Hours on this site are local Atlantic time, as each venue publishes them. A clock in Maine reads one hour earlier. Hours that run past midnight belong to the night they started.
What the door asks for
None of the four venues' pages says anything specific to visitors from the United States. No page lists accepted foreign documents or carries a currency notice. This guide does not cover border-crossing rules.
Each venue publishes its own door rules. Casino New Brunswick admits guests 19 and older with valid government photo ID. Its examples are a driver's licence, a passport or a provincial ID card. Guests who look under 30 may be asked for a second piece of ID. Grey Rock Casino admits guests 19 and older and requires valid government-issued photo ID, checked for guests who look 25 or under.
Wolastoq Casino's home page shows 19+, and its pages name no ID document for entry. Tobique Gaming Center publishes no minimum age and no ID rule on its site or on the Nation's page.

Connell Park Raceway in Woodstock
Connell Park Raceway in Woodstock is 20.0 km in a straight line from Houlton. It is a harness racing track, not a venue of this guide. The Woodstock Driving Club runs it at 137 Connell Park Road. Racing there is regulated by the Maritime Provinces Harness Racing Commission, which covers PEI, Nova Scotia and New Brunswick.
Racing in Woodstock goes back to about 1874. The track moved from Island Park to Connell Park after the Mactaquac dam was built.
