The Standardbred Retirement Foundation has a trip to the celebrated Elitlopp in Solvalla Stockholm (Sweden), one of harness racing's largest events up for grabs through a fund raising raffle.
This fabulous trip begins with an airfare voucher valued to $1,600 and includes a five-day, four-night stay for two at a four-star hotel in the heart of the Stockholm. A welcoming dinner and get together Thursday night; on Friday, tour of Menhammer Stud Breeding Farm, tour of one of the most successful European training centres, a trip to The Elite Yearling Sale, a private tour of the Royal Castle and other historic sites, and Saturday morning, entrance to the Solvalla Racetrack Saturday and Sunday and an English speaking tour guide during your entire stay.
Raffle tickets are $25 each and funds raised will be used to provide hay and grain, medical and farrier care, rehabilitation, vaccinations, and other related needs for more than 180 Standardbreds currently in SRF's care. More than half of these horses are unadoptable due to age or injury under the full care and expense of SRF for the rest of their lives.
If you have not received your tickets by mail, they are also available for purchase by contacting [email protected], or by phone at 732-446-4422. The winning ticket will be drawn Friday, April 17 at noon at Showplace Farms in Millstone Twp., NJ; the winner does not need to be present. Help with selling tickets is also much appreciated. Please use the contact information noted.
