The Genesee Valley Hunt Races is a great way for the entire family to spend the day in a beautiful outdoor setting just north of Geneseo, NY. The Hunt Races have been hosted here for over 120 years, and some of the finest steeplechase trainers on the eastern seaboard bring their horses here to compete for over $30,000 in prize money. Trainers, owners, and jockeys agree that the Genesee Valley Hunt Races are one of the most anticipated meets of the entire season.

There is lots for the kids to do (including stick horse races and pony rides), food and drink vendors, wine and craft beer tasting, shopping, music and more. It’s like an old-fashioned country fair with a race track instead of a midway, and there’s something for everyone to enjoy!

Hey Geneseo freshman families, we see you preparing to carry that mini-fridge up to your newly minted college student's 3rd floor walk-up dorm room. We know you're going to follow it up with three trips up and down the hilliest campus this side of the Rocky's (worth it for those Sunset's though!) to gather all the things you need from different offices. So when you've finally finished unpacking the Subaru and can see out the back window again and you're done saying those tearful goodbyes, we've got the spot for you.

Geneseo's Main Street community has a Welcome Stroll planned for anyone interested in learning more about what the Geneseo downtown community has to offer your family during your time here in Geneseo. Buddy up with one of the tour guides for a guided tour of Main St businesses.

And end it with a Happy Hour Event at the Big Tree Inn. Trevor Donlon plays on the porch, drink and food specials for a warm welcome to town, and a chance to find YOUR new BFF for your kid's next four years.

The Village of Geneseo’s Main Street businesses will host the Welcome Stroll! This new event is to welcome first year students’ family, friends, and supporters after helping them move in. Main Street will offer free parking, as well as a variety of other opportunities, including:

• Guided tours at 12:00, 2:00, 4:00, and 6:00 p.m.

• Happy Hour at Big Tree Inn

• Music 5:00-7:00 p.m.
