On Saturday, May 19, the 30th running of the Rappahannock Point-to-Point Races will be held at Thornton Hill Farm, 2 miles south of Sperryville on Route 522. This colorful event begins at 11:00 a.m. with “pair races”—one for fast time and one for optimum time—and ends with the traditional foxhound race over the beautiful Rappahannock Course. Good weather is expected, with an abundance of clean mountain air.
