Join us for the D.H.P.C. Junior Pace 2018 Trip!
We are excited to announce that the DHPC are planning a summer excursion to the Meadowlands Pace in New Jersey during July 2018 and we would like to take as many juniors as possible!
The Meadowlands Pace has been held every year since 1977, and luckily for us the Meadowlands Race Track is in an area near a number of other tracks and a number of Standardbred barns.
It is our hope that the juniors who attend the trip will be able to meet some trainers and drivers and see the professional side of our sport that we all love so much.
We recognize that a trip like this requires funds to make it as great as we hope it to be. We, therefore, have arranged a number of fundraising opportunities in the hopes that juniors (parents) and chaperones do not have to break the bank!
Dates for the trip are anticipated to be Thursday 12 July – Tuesday 17 July 2018, exact details of the itineraries will be developed shortly. If you are interested in participating in this trip please complete the attached form and return as soon as possible.
