CANCELLED:  May 14, 2026 Minnesota Horse and Hunt Club event benefitting MMAF

On March 31, 2026, David Penn, owner of the Minnesota Horse and Hunt Club, passed away unexpectedly. David was a supporter of Minnesota service members and their families and he channeled that support by hosting sporting clays events at his club to benefit MMAF. Due to David’s recent passing, this year’s event has been canceled. If you have registered for the May 14, 2026 event, a refund will be processed by April 24, 2026. MMAF offers our thoughts and prayers to his family, friends and the Minnesota Horse and Hunt Club community.
