MTHA Christmas Party Is Back This Year

Wednesday, October 2, 2024

The Maryland Thoroughbred Horsemen’s Association is pleased to announce that its 2024 Christmas Party will return to The Corner Stable restaurant located in Kings Contrivance Village Center in Columbia, Md.

The party will be held from 6-10 p.m. on Tuesday, Dec. 10. Last year’s event, which featured a gourmet buffet and a DJ, was very well-received, and this year’s party is expected to follow in that tradition.

The cost is $20 per ticket, and it is requested all attendees bring a new, unwrapped toy that can be given out during the annual MTHA Toy Drive later in December. Tickets will be available for purchase at the MTHA office at Laurel Park in November.

The Corner Stable is owned by Chip Reed, a member of the MTHA Board of Directors.
