Run for the Roses 2008
In preparation for the 134th annual Kentucky Derby to take place on Saturday, May 3, 2008, Good Hope invites you to experience its 5th annual “Run for the Roses” event. While many not-for-profits host annual black-tie affairs, Good Hope’s “Run for the Roses” derby experience provides a unique event like no other, with 100% of the event’s proceeds benefiting various equine-related programs for children, youth and adults with cognitive, emotional and physical disabilities.
This one-of-a-kind South Florida event boasts a fun-filled afternoon and evening of live televised horse races from all over the country, including the Kentucky Derby; horse race raffles and games; a silent auction; music and dancing; and traditional Kentucky Derby rites of passage, such as refreshing Mint Juleps and the legendary “Hat Contest” where there are no rules and no limits.
