from the Standardbred Retirement Foundation

Millstone Township, NJ — The celebrated Elitlopp in Solvalla Stockholm (Sweden) is one of harness racing’s largest events in the world for those who love the sport of racing. A fabulous trip to enjoy a full weekend of Swedish racing is now a fundraiser for the Standardbred Retirement Foundation through its annual raffle.

This memorable trip begins with an airfare voucher valued to $1,000 and includes a five day-four night stay for two at a 4-star hotel in the heart of the Stockholm. The trip features a welcoming dinner and get together Thursday night, sightseeing on Friday and Saturday morning, entrance to the Solvalla Racetrack on 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 200 trotters and pacers currently in SRF’s care. More than half of these horses are unadoptable due to age or injury and are under the full care and expense of SRF for the rest of their lives.

Tickets should have arrived by mail to all SRF supporters and are also available for purchase. The winning ticket will be drawn Tuesday (April 28) at 12 noon; the winner does not need to be present. Help with selling tickets is also much appreciated. Please use the contact information noted.

SRF, now in its 26th year, is unique in its mission as the only requirement for a horse in need is need itself. SRF does not limit its help to horses who are young and adoptable. It also provides full care for horses for life if age or injuries make them unattractive for adoption.

SRF asks for the support of all whose lives have been touched by racing and these horses through its fund raising efforts, the Elitlopp raffle, Win*Win program, horse sponsorship, planned giving, and through its endowment, so the mission has a future to care for these horses.
