by the North American Amateur Drivers Association and the Catskill Amateur
Drivers Club are under way to organize a race for military veterans who
are also amateur harness drivers are coming to fruition according to NAADA vice
president, Alan Schwartz. The event will be held on Thursday November 9, noted
Alan Schwartz a former U.S Marine who besides being the vice president of
NAADA is also the president of the Monticello Raceway’s Harness Horsemen’s
Association.
At

will each donate $1000 to the Veteran’s Food Pantry of Sullivan County, NY.
Both
amateur organizations are urging those who plan on attending the afternoon’s
race card to please bring along a non-perishable food item which will then be
delivered to the veteran’s food pantry.
Beginning
Wednesday November 1, Monticello Raceway will revert to its winter post time of
