In 2008, Hoof Beat will celebrate its 75th birthday, and we want to mark the occasion with those who have been with us the longest. We invite all readers of Hoof Beats to send in their stories about what the magazine has meant to them over the years--favorite stories, department, writers, photographs and photographers.

And we really want to know how you have seen Hoof Beats grow and change over the years--from 1933 until today.

We will honor our longest-time subscribers who contact us with stories with a special gift, and will feature them in our 2008 anniversary issue, being published in July. Submit your memories and reflections below or e-mail us at hoofbeats@ustrotting.com with the subject line "Hoof Beats Memories " and the following information.
