Of course, we’ll have music, a little finger food and drink, and we’ll raise some money for Children’s Harbor (50/50 Drawing) so bring some real money (CASH)!

Post time is scheduled for around 6pm, but Derby history always has the start running a tad late. On-time or late, we’ll gather around the big screens and cheer on our favorite horses!
