Saratoga Springs Preservation Foundation Announces Upcoming Summer Sunday Strolls
On Sunday, July 27, at 10:30AM, join the Foundation’s Executive Director Samantha Bosshart, for “Horsin’ Around North Broadway.”
This engaging stroll explores the deep ties between Saratoga Springs’ famed North Broadway and the city’s rich horse racing heritage. Discover the connection between prominent racing families—like the Jeffords, Chenery, and Phipps—and the grand summer cottages of this historic neighborhood.
With racing season in full swing, it’s the perfect time to explore Saratoga’s blend of health, history, and horses. Take the tour in the morning, then head to the Saratoga Race Course to see the connections come to life. The tour, generously sponsored by Olde Bryan Inn, meets at the northwest corner of North Broadway and Van Dam Street, in front of Witt Construction.
Next Sunday, August 3, at 10:30AM, join Preservation & Programs Coordinator, Sydney Hedge, on a tour through Historic Congress Park, a National Historic Landmark. The tour highlights the iconic Canfield Casino, as well as the many sculptures and monuments that dot the landscape, each with its own unique story and significance in Saratoga’s rich history. Sponsored by the Holiday Inn – Saratoga Springs, this tour meets in front of Canfield Casino.
The Foundation is grateful for the generous support of the 2025 Summer Series Sponsors: Druthers Brewing Company, and Stewart’s Shops. All Sunday morning tours last approximately 90 minutes and require walking and standing on varied terrain. Tours are limited to 30 participants. The cost per tour is $15 for SSPF members and $20 for non-members. Foundation members with stroll passes need to contact the Foundation’s office to book their Sunday Summer Stroll before the date they choose.
