The Bank of Colorado’s Down & Derby Party embraced the excitement of the Kentucky Derby with a Colorado twist. The event kicked off the spring season perfectly with sunny weather, games and, of course, the classic mint julep cocktail. The 149th Kentucky Derby race was livestreamed onto a large outdoor screen. Attendees danced to live music by The Blues Dogs, participated in the derby hat contest and entered a raffle for a shot at winning prize packages, including a trip to Louisville for the 2024 Kentucky Derby. The event raised over $150,000 for NOCO Unify, and this year’s main beneficiaries were The Matthews House, Greeley-Weld Habitat for Humanity and ChildSafe.
