The Legacy Pickleball Club will host “Pickle for the Ponies”, a family-friendly pickleball tournament benefitting the PDJF and Therapeutic Horses of Saratoga. The event, held Monday, Aug. 26 from 3-6 p.m. at the Legacy Pickleball Club in Ballston Spa, NY, will offer spectators the chance to “meet racing celebrities and support two impactful causes.” Celebrity players will include members of the Saratoga jockey colony, Hall of Fame jockeys, thoroughbred Hall racing trainers and media personalities. There will also be a silent auction onsite.
“As an Ambassador for Therapeutic Horses of Saratoga and the Permanently Disabled Jockeys Fund, I'm excited to participate in this new community outreach event” said retired Hall of Fame jockey, Ramon Dominguez. “This new event will bring the Saratoga community and the racetrack community together for a fun afternoon of light-hearted competition and awareness-raising for two terrific organizations. Both the THS and PDJF focus their efforts on the health and well-being of people and they each understand the powerful role horses as healers.”
Tickets start at $25 and are available online or at the door.
