Celebrate with Spalding Alumni, Students, Faculty, Staff and Friends for a brand new experience at our Annual Day at the Downs Fundraising Event. After 15 years on Millionaire Row (and a two year hiatus) , Day at the Downs will now be on the 6th and 7th floors of the Starting Gate Suites!
Admission prices include lunch buffet, silent auction and chances for door prizes, as well as access to private cash bar and betting windows and all public areas of Churchill Downs. Plus, all guests will have access to 11 large suites for your viewing enjoyment and the spectacular views of the races and downtown from the Rooftop Garden - one of Churchill Downs newest event spaces!
All proceeds benefit the Spalding Blue and Gold Fund which directly supports our students.
If you have any questions, please contact Vay Davis at [email protected] or 502-873-4319. Tickets will be sent through email to the submitted address approximately one week prior to the event, unless otherwise directed by you. We are planning a bourbon raffle for the event and are collecting bottles for the raffle. If you'd like to donate bourbon to help support our students, please contact Vay!
We are also accepting donations for our silent auction as well. If you'd like to make an auction donation click here.
