Don't miss out on being a part of the pageantry!
Mark your calendar to attend A Derby Affair May 5, 2012.
A unique and distinctive extravaganza, A Derby Affair brings the rich pageantry, elegance, and history of the Kentucky Derby to the desert southwest. Set on the luscious green turf of The Arizona Biltmore Resort & Spa, A Derby Affair is back for its eighth "Run for the Roses" to champion the cause of Homeward Bound, Arizona’s largest transitional housing program for homeless and domestic violence families with children.
Guests will enjoy a day at the races with all the grand traditions of the Kentucky Derby, including sipping mint juleps, donning fashionable derby hats, and wagering on the ponies – all while socializing in a “millionaires' row” setting and feasting on southern culinary delights. The event culminates in the running of the 138th Kentucky Derby, which will be simulcast on large screens for all to see and enjoy.
Last year’s event was a complete sell out, so make your reservations today! Sponsorship packages and tickets are available now. A select few donors will be able to reserve private bungalow tent – a perfect gathering place for dining, watching the races and socializing with friends. Additional levels are available for reserved tables of 10, which also provide an ideal venue to develop professional relationships and enhance personal friendships.
You can be part of providing Homeward Bound families with a “hand up not a handout” by joining us in this unique blend of charitable giving and thoroughbred racing that is not to be missed!
