The Kentucky Derby is this weekend and a couple of local organizations are marking the occasion with fundraisers.
The Saxonburg Area Rotary Club is holding a Derby Day Trolley Crawl on Saturday from 2 to 7 p.m. For $75 participants can enjoy one drink and a snack at four different locations plus transportation between. Proceeds will support local independent business as well as fund community projects and local food banks. Limited tickets are available through the Saxonburg Area Rotary Club website or Facebook page.
Also on Saturday, Inspired Hearts and Hands is inviting the public to their Run for the Roses Derby for Hope from 5 to 10 p.m. at the Regional Learning Alliance. General admission tickets are $125 per person and include a dinner and dessert buffet as well as libations by donation, derby race wagering, raffles, casino games of chance, and live entertainment. Proceeds will fund programs that nourish local children as well as provide essential resources for local families and veterans in need. The Inspired Hearts and Hands website has more information.
