New Vocations Racehorse Adoption Program will host its fourth annual Open Barn and BBQ event Apr. 26 from 5:30 to 8:30 p.m. Guests will be welcomed to tour the facility on Mereworth Farm and the evening will include a Southern-style dinner, drinks and live music, followed by an hour-long educational demonstration in the indoor arena. Adoptable horses will be presented in-hand, after which international event rider Nick Larkin will offer his perspective on the retraining process of off-track Thoroughbreds.
New for the 2019 event, an online auction will open at noon Apr. 19, and close at the conclusion of the Open Barn and BBQ. The auction will include unique experiences and opportunities, such as a private tour of Spy Coast Farm; a lesson with four-star rider Nick Larkin; a fantastic home decor piece from The Tack Shop of Lexington; a Tipperary vest and much more.
