Gladys, Va. – Dec. 23, 2024 – Normally, on a December morning, Heritage Farm trainer Laena Romond would be schooling horses, prepping for a show day in Wellington, Florida, where the program is based during the winter months. But on December 15, Romond instead found herself in race gear in downtown West Palm Beach, about to run a half marathon–and win. She finished the 13.1-mile race in 1 hour and 24 minutes, as the fastest woman.

Today, on National Day of the Horse, we celebrate the profound connection between humans and horses- the bond that guides the work of GallopNYC!

Since 1967, IHSA has been a transformative force in collegiate equestrian sports, building a community of riders, coaches and supporters who carry our legacy forward each year. In over five decades, IHSA has grown from a handful of riders to hundreds of teams and thousands of students across the U.S and Canada. Together, we’ve created a place where anyone, from seasoned equestrians to first-time riders, can learn, compete and find lifelong friends.

In the spirit of our Holiday Appeal, we invite you to watch our video anthem and experience the heart of GallopNYC’s mission to empower New Yorkers with disabilities!

Two days into our first-ever year-end giving campaign, we’re thrilled by the excitement and support from the IHSA community. As alumni, supporters, and riders like Camryn Lubner come together to celebrate IHSA’s impact, we’re reminded of the unique legacy we’re building – one that spans generations.
