Upcoming Events
The Jackson Derby is an event for everyone! This annual networking and social event attracts business and community leaders right to the virtual track. Big hats, seersucker suits, bow ties, bourbon tastings and of course mint juleps! There will be nail-biting races, great music and dinner.
Sponsor a horse for $25 and you get to name it! Your business and horse will be listed in the event program and on the big screen, you do not have to be present to sponsor a horse!
Examples: An insurance company may name a horse "Fire and Casualty" or a bank could choose, "Money Maker." Be creative and fun!
6:00-9:00 p.m. Doors open at 5:30
Betting begins for first race at 6:30 p.m. SHARP!
