Run for the Roses at CTRP

Dust Off Your Silks & Grab Your Big Hats! Join us for the ultimate Kentucky Derby Watch Party to benefit the Coastal Therapeutic Riding Program! We’re bringing the spirit of Churchill Downs right here to the coast for a day of "Run for the Roses" excitement and community impact. Indulge in a Taste of Italy while sipping on craft favorites from Broomtail Craft Brewery and signature spirits from End of Days Distillery. Whether you’re here for the Hat and Bow Tie Contest, the Live Derby Broadcast, or the high-stakes Derby Draw, there’s something for everyone. With family games, a silent auction, and a raffle full of local treasures, it’s more than a race—it’s a finish line for our mission!
