Come join us for a fun-filled day full of two of Kentucky’s most famous industries - Bourbon and Horses! Our next event at the Ripy House will be a special Bourbon and Horses Charity Fundraiser for Old Friends featuring Michael Blowen, President. Old Friends Old Friends is a 501 (c) 3 non-profit which provides a dignified retirement to Thoroughbreds whose racing and breeding careers have come to an end. It is known as a “living-history museum of horse racing”. Help us help Michael Blowen and all the caretakers and residents of Old Friends by raising funds for this noble cause! The event will feature a horse themed bourbon tasting (separate cost), Derby-themed cocktails at the cash bar, and food trucks. In addition, there will be a silent auction with gifts generously donated by several distilleries including Four Roses, Buffalo Trace, Castle and Key, and many others. Special thanks to Stone Fences Tours for all that you do and helping make this fundraiser a success. You can make a difference and be a part of contributing to the care and livelihood of these wonderful horses!
