Santa Is Coming!
The Maryland Thoroughbred Horsemen’s Association will hold its annual Christmas Toy Drive distribution Saturday, Dec. 17, at 11 a.m. in the Laurel Park Track Kitchen. The event traditionally features a visit from Santa as well as cookies and hot chocolate courtesy of the Paz family.
The toy drive, organized by MTHA Operations Director Diana Pinones, was very successful this year thanks to donations from industry participants including Victor Carrasco, Jeiron Barbosa, Xavier Perez, and other jockeys; trainers Claudio Gonzalez, Rudy Sanchez, Richard Sillaman and Mario Serey; and Jim McCue, Jerry Dzierwinski, and Kevin and Mary Frances O’Keeffe. The Maryland Jockey Club also held a toy drive Dec. 3 and contributes to the cause.
