Annual Holiday Concert at the Harness Racing Museum

Mark your calendar for Thursday, December 10th at 7:30 p.m. for the annual Holiday Concert at the Harness Racing Museum & Hall of Fame. This museum members’ benefit event will be held in the Museums William R. Haughton Memorial Hall. The Goshen High School’s Varsity Choir, Jazz Voices, and Saxophone Ensemble will return for the occasion. We are also delighted to welcome the After Hours Quartet of the Evergreen Chapter of Sweet Adelines International, who will lead our lively audience in the concert’s annual version of "The 12 Days of Christmas."

Museum member Edie Haughney, Merrill Lynch Senior Financial Advisor together with Rose & Anatoly Shevchuk of Goshen Gourmet will be providing a wonderful holiday dessert table for the enjoyment of all. Arrive early to see our holiday tree filled with horsy ornaments, tour the museum with its festive halls and stalls, and check out the new exhibits that have been installed since last year’s concert.


Admission of $3.00 per person is waived for members. Non-members who bring a toy for the Marines’ “Toys for Tots” program receive a $1.00 admission discount! As seating is limited we recommend making reservations as soon as possible by calling Joanne Young at (845) 294-6330.


A visit to the museum is never complete without a stop at the Winner’s Circle Gift Shop for the perfect holiday gift. Our gift to you is a 10% discount on purchases to shoppers and concert-goers prior to the musical program.


If you are unable to attend the concert a Marine Corps Toy Drop Box is located in the Museum’s main lobby and toys can be brought in from now until Sunday, December 20 between 10 a.m. and 5 p.m. daily. The US Marine Corps Reserve "Toys for Tots" program distributes toys as Christmas gifts to needy children in the community.
