Come join the Secretariat Center staff, volunteers, and current adoptable Thoroughbreds for a uniquely Kentucky experience! The Secretariat Center is excited to announce its latest “Movie Night Under the Stars” featuring the movie, Dreamer. Guests have one more opportunity for the year to watch a movie under the stars surrounded by a picturesque horse farm so get your tickets, grab a blanket, bring the family, and join us on the front lawn of The Secretariat Center with a statue of the great racehorse in the center of the action. The fun starts at 6 pm on October 1st (rain date October 2nd) with food for purchase from Salsarita's, Mr. Gyro, and Mister Softee Ice Cream and beverages from Blue Stallion Brewery. The kids will have a blast playing in the Keeneland Kid Zone, cuddling mini ponies, getting up close to a Lexington FD fire truck, and practicing their high jump over horse jumps for kids. The movie will start at approximately 7:30 pm. Popcorn is free and there will be special giveaways and raffles thanks to our generous sponsors: Breeders' Cup, Britton + Johnson, Morgan Equine, Magee's Baking Co., Dr. Gina Higgins, Lexington Equine Medical, Four Star Sales, Godolphin, Dever, Keeneland, Ballyrankin Stud, and Churchill Downs. Tickets for this unique experience are $20 per person ($10 for kids under 10) and are on sale now at www.secretariatcenter.org. All proceeds go toward supporting the Secretariat Center's mission of preparing off-track Thoroughbreds for happy, healthy, and successful post-track careers through rehabilitation and retraining. The Secretariat Center advocates for the athleticism and versatility of the Thoroughbred by providing a broad training foundation for its retired racehorses and educational horsemanship opportunities aimed at achieving harmonious adoption matches.

Located at 4155 Walt Robertson Rd., Lexington, KY in the Kentucky Horse Park, the Secretariat Center was founded in 2004 as a nonprofit 501(c)3 organization to showcase adoptable Thoroughbreds and uses its illustrious location to herald the athleticism of this amazing breed by teaching new skill sets to horses of all levels of ability.

  “We will meet again, in the clearing, at the end of the path.” This Old Horse's mission to support older and special needs horses is one of great joy and great heartache. Vowing to be there until the end is a profound privilege and we are blessed to accept that it does not get ‘easier’ as time goes on. Horses that share the end of their life’s path with This Old Horse are deeply mourned, never forgotten, fondly recalled by those of us who have been touched, moved, humbled by their presence in our lives. This Old Horse has a quiet path at their Wishbone Ranch site, well planned and lovingly tended by This Old Horse volunteers who have created spaces for people to walk, sit, watch horses, and reflect. This Old Horse intends to pave the path to this memory garden with bricks that commemorate horses, humans, pets and events that have touched the hearts of people in the community. The brick memorial fundraiser will kick off on their Day of Remembrance event on Saturday. Memory Lane will be built with bricks that include messages and memories. The message bricks come in 4” x 8” ($75) and 8”x8” ($100). There is also a This Old Horse logo brick (no message) that is 12”x12” for $200.
