Kentucky Derby watch party is May 2

Posted

The second annual Kentucky Derby watch party is planned for 3 to 9 p.m. Saturday, May 2, at the Elks Lodge in Gunnison. The event is a fundraiser for the Lighthouse Pregnancy Center.

in Gunnison, which aims to offer confidential and free pregnancy counseling services to anyone in need.

Last year’s inaugural event was a big success, with a large crowd gathering in the Elks Lodge while wearing southern attire, derby hats and drinking the traditional beverage of the event, mint juleps. There will be a best–dressed competition, a silent auction and more. It is sponsored by the Elks Lodge and the Knights of Columbus. The derby itself begins just before 5 p.m.

Tickets are $50 per person. A DJ will be playing music well into the night at the club, too. 

Tickets can be purchased at Treads N’ Threads or online. For more information, call Dan at 970-497-9722
