Hippodrome first appeared in 1928 where students and organizations were invited to enter a stunt competition for a ten dollar prize.  This traditional week used to be a one-day event but has since dramatically grown to include a full week鈥檚 worth of activities. The early years saw such events as wrestling and boxing matches, organizational booths and a country store. Hippodrome has been cancelled twice since its inception, once during WWII and the most recent during the coronavirus pandemic beginning in 2020. This year, Hippodrome returns to its original form as a one-day event.
