    If you love tradition, horses, parties and fun, the 2010 Kentucky Derby is for you! Your amazing weekend for two starts with coach airfare to Louisville, Kentucky, where you will check into the Embassy Suites for up to three nights (incidentals not included) and begin the festivities on Thursday, April 30, at the Kentucky Museum of Art & Craft's 24th annual Oaks Brunch at the historic Camberly Brown Hotel in downtown Louisville. Set off to Churchill Downs for a day of races and the 136th running of the Kentucky Oaks, the world's richest distaff race. A partnership with Susan G. Komen for the Cure and Horses for Hope makes this a special race day as the fillies run for the lilies. After the races, get dressed up and revved up for a fun night of dining, celebrity sighting and dancing at the Julep Ball held at The Galt House Hotel. Saturday, May 1, the 136th Kentucky Derby begins with a brunch full of southern hospitality and urban fare at 610 Magnolia in the heart of historic Old Louisville. You'll head to the track for a day of races and "the most exciting two minutes in sports." You'll be seated in the Trophy Room of the Finsh Line Suites both days with the Chef's Table of Kentucky-inspired foods and a full bar provided for you. Access to the large balcony overlooking the track, paddock, sportscasters and celebrities awaits you. A private tour of the paddock area during the races is also included and, if security allows, this includes watching a race on the finish line rail. Secured parking for both days is provided across the street from Churchill Downs. All you need is to rent a car on your own. Bring your binoculars, camera and betting money for the time of your life. Expires May 2010.

  • Live & Silent Auction, Raffle, and semi-formal dinner served by Greenhills Sophomore Students.
  • Directions to Fox Hills Golf & Banquet Center at 8768 North Territorial Road, Plymouth, MI 48170.
