Default End of a tradition, SA will not print 2021 calendars

Many of us still found a way to still secure the always beautiful Santa Anita calendar even after Hammer left.

Not this year. No Opening Day patrons means that this longest running of SA promotions will be suspended this year.

Hopefully Hammer can continue to take care of our calendar needs from Oaklawn.

Excellent! I'm sure it'll just be pure torture for Hammer to look at my new puppy. Might have to send more than one photo. She's pretty frickin' cute when she's not destroying squeaky toys.
