2020 HHYF Summer Events Cancelled

Anderson, IN – On behalf of HHYF trustees and staff, we regret to announce that all HHYF events scheduled for May, June, July, and August have been cancelled. Possible programs may be set up for late fall; our hope is to attach “mini-camps” to existing events to continue to make that all-important hands-on connection of young people and Standardbreds.

HHYF is currently working on the development of virtual learning opportunities to be used our social media outlets. Announcements and details will be made as they become available.

HHYF will continue the Curt Memorial Scholarship & Sweet Karen Scholarship selection process – reminder that April 30 deadline for submission of all applications and related documents remains unchanged.

 

The production of the 2020 edition HARNESS HEROES trading cards is also underway.

Many thanks to our 2020 sponsors whose support will sustain our mission and activities.

Win Level: Diamond Creek Farm, Lindy Farms, Meadows Standardbred Owners Association
