Need an Excuse to Buy Those Fancy Hats? Go to a Kentucky Derby Party



I happen to have one taking place in New York City:   It's being thrown by MaroonEffect.org, a charity that is affiliated with the NYC Chapter of the Virginia Tech Alumni Association.  Details below:

May 7th, 2011 – 5th Annual Kentucky Derby Charity Event @ The Village Pourhouse on Restaurant Row

A unique charity event that combines Southern Charm and Manhattan Sass as the Kentucky Derby experience comes to life in Midtown.  Ladies in hats and heels mingle with gents in seersucker, sipping mint juleps, while placing bets on the Derby’s outcome and anxiously awaiting the live charity auction and best dressed competition.  All proceeds from the event benefit scholarships for area students.
