Spend Derby Day at Foxhall Farm
Derby Day is held every year at Foxhall Farm, a 1,200-acre horse farm that borders the Chattahoochee River in Douglas County, in celebration of the Kentucky Derby.
Plan to come and enjoy an afternoon of fun, sun, great barbeque and beverages (alcoholic and non-alcoholic) and watch the Kentucky Derby, live, on two big screens. You will also have an opportunity to bid on travel packages and other items in both live and silent auctions and to enjoy the two live bands throughout the day and into the evening.
Tickets cost $60 in advance and $70 at the gate. All proceeds benefit the Shepherd Center's Therapeutic Recreation Program, which funds activities such as the Wheelchair Division of the Peachtree Road Race and the Shepherd’s Center’s annual Adventure Skills Workshop.
You can purchase tickets online.

It won't happen next year if Merrill Trust gets their way. Up for approval at next month's P&Z meeting, tabled from this month's meeting, is a sporting club/resort where Foxhall Farms is. It wouldn't be completed until 2020, and the company is already under scrutiny for not paying contractors for the Sky Valley Resort project.
