Hats & Horses Talk Derby To Me on Saturday, April 12th

An interactive fundraising event celebrating the annual Run for the Roses where southern Derby charm meets high-energy excitement!

Join NOAS on Saturday, April 12th, at Leo’s Ristorante in Warren. Grab your hats and place your bets—gates open at 5:30 pm.

Picture yourself in a derby hat, sipping a handcrafted mint julep, and feeling the rush of the races as you cheer on your winning horse! Mingle with fellow guests, place fun bets for a good cause, and experience the fun of horse racing, betting and cheering your horse down the stretch. Whether you’re a racing enthusiast or just love a great party, this is your chance to dress up, let loose, and make memories—all while supporting NOAS and changing lives!

We’ve got a thrilling lineup of activities, including a cash bar, live and silent auctions, a bourbon tasting, a Barrel of Cheer raffle, and the best derby hat contest! Don’t miss the special Celebrity Jockey Race, where some familiar faces will compete for the win!

We’ll also have a "Race Program" featuring Race Sponsors, horses' names, and their owners, which will be handed out at the event. Our race caller will present exciting pre-taped horse races chosen from hundreds of thrilling events, displayed on a big screen. You can place $2 bets (or more!) on any horse and win REAL money—there’s NO LIMIT on how many horses you can bet on.

For only $25 each, you can purchase and name your own horse in advance—get creative! If your horse wins, you’ll receive $50! Why not buy a horse as a fun gift and name it after a family member? You don’t have to buy a horse to attend or be present to win.

Please note: You must be 21 to be a horse owner or attend the event.


Don’t miss out on this unique night of racing, auctions, tastings, and more—see you there!
