Summer Programs as well as our outreach efforts for 2025 were a HIT! HHYF traveled to five different states and connected with numerous families, students, and hopeful new fans of the sport over the last few months. A heartfelt thank you goes out to everyone who attended, as well as to our incredible volunteers (too many to mention) who made it all possible.

Of course the stable members behavior was exemplary and another big shout out to the stables who conditioned them Alesha Binkley, Hank LeVan, Dustin Miller, Julie Miller, Vicky Rouch, and Veronica Spicer. Homer received many extra pats as he was a perfect gentleman during the 100th Hambletonian Weekend!

As always, we look forward to another fun and education-filled summer in 2026. If you have a location suggestion or a desire to volunteer, feel free to reach out to Ellen at ellen@hhyf.org.
