Our 2nd date- Joe attending my Triple Crown Party in Maysville, KY, not long after I took him to Keeneland! Needless to say, he's embraced the tradition stated in the early 1990s with Ellen in Omaha!

We'll continue to post updates about the event here, but I wanted to get started and make sure you're making your plans to join us! Stop by for a bit or come for the whole time! Bring friends and family- especially those new to the area!
https://www.kentuckyderby.com/ Details about the Derby here- so many traditions and fun!
Dress- do your thing, hats encouraged, dress for the weather- we're rain or shine, or snow- ha!
What to bring? Thanks for those who ask- yourselves, your family (or don't but kids are welcome), if you feel like it an appetizer or bit-size dessert to share. We appreciate some of the long-time comer's traditions- deviled eggs- epic, salmon, Kentucky treats Ms. Miller...the thing is- if you made it come let me know so I can have a nibble! In the past when the party was a graduation party we provided pizza, not the plan this year- truly more nibble and graze.
What will be offered to drink: Granville Brewing, Yuenling on tap, Mint Juleps- of course, lemonade and waters- tap or sparkling, some wine...again often you have a favorite wine, bring it with you...but you really should try a julep! Oh and sipping Bourbon at the bar too...
