Governor Matt Bevin has extended an invitation to all Kentuckians to attend the annual Governor's Derby Celebration.
A statement from Bevin says events will be held on May 7 from 9 a.m. until 1 p.m. in downtown Frankfort.
The 2016 Derby Celebration will include new activities, such as the YMCA Derby Dash on Broadway, and traditional ones, including stick horse races on the Old State Capitol lawn. A few of the other offerings include a tricycle race for adults, a live animal exhibit, Derby hat making and live music.
In addition, Kentucky artists will be exhibiting and selling their work.
