Old Friends Oct. 16 Fall Fundraiser Scheduled

Old Friends Farm | Sarah Andrew

Old Friends Farm will hold its Fall Fundraiser on Monday, Oct. 16, the Thoroughbred retirement home said in a release Thursday morning.

Before the fundraiser, at 11:30 a.m. (ET) the farm will pay tribute to MGSW Timely Writer, who lost his life in a breakdown at Belmont Park in 1982. Due to construction of a new synthetic track in Elmont, his grave has been exhumed and his remains will now be reinterred at the Nikki Bacharach Memorial Cemetery at Old Friends. There is no cost to attend the service.

Gates open at noon and the fundraiser features a light lunch with Old Friends items offered for sale. Mini farm tours and special guests will round out the afternoon. Admission is $40 for adults, $20 for 2023 Clubhouse Members, and Kids 12/under are free.
