Nite at the Races

Coming Soon: March 2026

Join fellow Slavic Villagers in cheering on broncos and mustangs in one of the neighborhood’s most entertaining nites of the year!

Support the neighhhhborhood!

Nite at the Races raises funds for Slavic Village Development to continue improving our community through housing assistance, business development, community building, youth literacy and much more. To give you an idea of what you’re supporting, $3,000 can go towards teaching 120 residents how to work on their homes, helping a small business open, hiring 3 community stewards to work on projects in the community, or planting 15 trees!

Want to go all in?

If you like, you can “buy” a horse, and name it. $25 enters your horse in one race; if your horse wins, you take home a medal! Make sure you give your horse a good name–steeds entered in previous years include Willie Makit, Glue Factory, and Czech Yourself Before You Wreck Yourself. Wonder who will be racing the classic horses Stud Muffin and Broadway Back? Purchase horses HERE.
