ANDERSON, IN -- February 10, 2026 -- HHYF’s now multi-seasonal itinerary is packed with a variety of programs and many locations. With stops in Ohio, Indiana, Kentucky, New York, New Jersey, and Virginia – so much education, excitement and increased awareness for harness racing is anticipated.


“HHYF programs are vital to the industry,” explained HHYF Executive Director Ellen Taylor. “Not only do our events stimulate interest from new horse-loving participants but they also reinvigorate the hardened trainer when he/she sees the kids having fun and learning.” 


Spoiler alert: HHYF’s first visit was actually in early February at Carroll County’s (IN) Young Wranglers 4-H Club. The 2026 HHYF schedule is as follows:
