by Brenda Komers, secretary/treasurer, Pinehurst Driving and Training Club

Pinehurst, NC — Even though it has been a bit colder than usual this winter, nothing could be finer than to train in Carolina in the morning!

The annual spring matinee races for 2-year-olds are scheduled for Sunday (April 6). The matinee event is co-sponsored by the Pinehurst Driving and Training Club and the Village of Pinehurst Parks and Recreation Department; additionally, we are fortunate to have Preferred Equine Marketing as our first corporate sponsor. The matinee is also supported by local residents and businesses and by many breeding farms and businesses in the harness racing industry.

This event not only provides an enjoyable afternoon for all the participants and spectators, it also enables the Club to make charitable donations to various organizations, including local and national horse rescue organizations, a therapeutic riding program, a women’s shelter, hospice, VFW, and others.

USTA-sanctioned qualifying races for-3-year-olds and older are scheduled for Wednesday (April 9).
