Recap: Kentucky Derby Watch Parties in Raleigh & Greensboro

By

We had successful Kentucky Derby Watch Parties in both Raleigh and Greensboro on Saturday, May 4, 2019. Guests in both locations dressed to impress while they watched on the big screen sipping Proper Juleps and Scioto Downs.

Horsepower Therapeutic Learning Center was on site in Raleigh and Greensboro and we donated $3 from every Proper Julep and Scioto Downs sold to Horsepower. Brandy, a horse from Horsepower even showed up in Greensboro for the party! Both locations raised $600 each for the Horsepower Therapeutic Learning Center for a total of $1,200.

The race was an intense one. Watch the crowd in Greensboro go wild as Maximum Security crossed the finish line.

Not long after the race finished, Country House was named the winner of the 145th running of the Kentucky Derby after Maximum Security was disqualified.
