After last year’s success, the Harness Horse Youth Foundation’s ‘Drive for Youth,’ the organization’s annual fall fundraiser, will again be a week-long national effort.

The events will kick off on October 4 at the Red Mile, will run through October 10, and will culminate on Kentucky Futurity Day.

Owners, trainers and drivers can pledge either a percentage of their earnings during Drive for Youth week, or they can pledge a flat amount, as explained by the organization’s executive director, Ellen Taylor.

“We always appreciate the support of horsemen at the local level and we invite the [horsemen] across the country to participate,” said Taylor. “This broad-based support ensures the continued success and expansion for our programs, including our summer camps and scholarships, as we head into our 40th anniversary year.”
