Charitable contributions to the Kentucky Horse Park Foundation provide the private support necessary for the Kentucky Horse Park to fulfill its primary missions. We appreciate your gift, as it is vital to sustaining and growing the programs we all enjoy.
Since its inception in 1985, the Kentucky Horse Park Foundation has raised over $36 million, helping make the Kentucky Horse Park the leading equestrian facility of its kind in the world.
Dedicated to supporting day-to-day operations at the Park, Man o’ War Society is essential for bridging the gap between support provided by the Commonwealth of Kentucky, earned income, and the needs of the Park.
The International Museum of the Horse, the KHP Campground, and the KHP Mustang Troop are just a few of the programs within the Park which are greatly benefited from increased funding from the Foundation.
The Kentucky Horse Park is a remarkable place every season of the year, but I find it particularly magical in the fall. As our guests and horses enjoy cooler temperatures, they are also greeted with the splendor of fall colors and a robust schedule of special events for every interest.
Here at the Kentucky Horse Park Foundation, we celebrate the fall, but we also eagerly await the return of Southern Lights Holiday Festival presented by Friends of Coal, celebrating its 30th year in the Bluegrass. This tradition for families from across Kentucky and beyond opens on November 24 and promises to be bigger and brighter than ever.
This newsletter highlights the events coming up on the calendar, including Southern Lights and the fun and exciting Southern Lights Stroll, sponsored by CHI Saint Joseph Health. It also details successful events of the past quarter, including the KHPF trail rides, Battle in the Saddle, and a celebration of the life of the great horse and resident equine celebrity, Funny Cide.
Perhaps most notably, however, this newsletter details your donor dollars at work. Because of the support of the Kentucky Horse Park Foundation family, valuable improvements were made at the Kentucky Horse Park. The Park was the beneficiary of hundreds of thousands of dollars through Foundation grants, and we are thrilled to share all the details…from new horses to extremely necessary maintenance equipment, to invaluable programs like the Mustang Troop…there is so much to celebrate.
As always, I am so grateful for the KHP Foundation family that stands by the Kentucky Horse Park today and helps us plan for tomorrow. Thank you for joining us on this journey.
