Derby Day 20103 Derby Hats

A festive Kentucky Derby fundraiser will be a beautiful traditional occasion with some exciting new twists. It will be a beautiful traditional occasion! A narrated riding demonstration, exquisite hats, mint juleps, a sumptuous southern buffet & desserts, and a bon vivant attitude will prevail as people support one of Iowa's musical treasures while watching the Run for the Roses on giant screen television.

Our Kentucky Derby Day at Crystal Creek Equine Center will be as interesting as Churchill Downs and possibly more fun! The party also provides a smashing way to support one of Iowa’s musical treasures – Red Cedar Chamber Music!
