The Jockey Club Safety Net Foundation and the Grayson-Jockey Club Research Foundation are set to host a pair of charity events in Saratoga Springs, NY, during the month of August.
The Fashionable Fillies Luncheon will take place Thursday, Aug. 4 and will benefit The Jockey Club Safety Net Foundation and Shelters of Saratoga, while the Grayson-Jockey Club's Annual Charity Golf Tournament is scheduled for Tuesday, Aug. 16. Both events will take place at Saratoga National Golf Club.
“The Fashionable Fillies Luncheon brings together the women of Saratoga and all corners of the racing world for an enjoyable afternoon of shopping for two great causes,” said Nancy Kelly, executive director of The Jockey Club Safety Net Foundation. “We are very grateful to the members of our Honorary Committee for their generosity and to those who attend this event each year.”
The luncheon will feature a silent auction and a fashion show. Tickets are $150 per person.
The golf tournament includes lunch, golf cart, greens fees, on-course refreshments, a cocktail reception and an awards dinner.
“Our charity golf tournament has been a popular event on the Saratoga calendar for more than a decade,” said Edward L. Bowen, president of the Grayson-Jockey Club Research Foundation. “This outing provides the opportunity to play on a beautiful golf course while supporting critical equine research.”
