In a show of continuing support for the Maryland equine community, Equine Equipment and
Toro have teamed up to donate a Toro Commercial 60” ZMASTER 2000 Series Zero Turn Mower
to be raffled off to fundraise for the Maryland Horse Foundation. The mower has a retail value of
more than $10,000.
“Toro has been a longtime supporter of our industry, and with this donation they are providing a
big boost to the great work that the Maryland Horse Foundation does for the equine community,”
said Steve Andersen, founder of Equine Equipment. “We are proud to help facilitate this
generous donation, and we are very thankful to have a partner like Toro who gives back to the
racing industry in so many ways.”
“Equine Equipment is always available to help horsemen get discounts on a wide range of
products and equipment, but if you are in the market for a new Toro commercial mower, we
encourage you to support this fundraiser or simply make a donation to the Maryland Horse
Foundation,” added Andersen.
All proceeds from the mower raffle will go toward the Maryland Horse Foundation and the
Maryland Horse Library and Education Center to continue educating, promoting, and
encouraging the horse breeding industry in Maryland.
“With the support of Toro and Equine Equipment we are going to be able to fund more
educational opportunities and promote the importance of the horse industry in Maryland”,
confirms Cricket Goodall, executive director of the Maryland Horse Foundation, “And we are
able to provide a chance for someone to win this great Toro Commercial 60” ZMASTER 2000
Series Zero Turn Mower for $100!”
