 Race For The Arts 
Derby Day

The annual springtime fundraising event was held in a new location this year. Jimmy and Jeri Wohl were gracious hosts at the Rafter T Ranch in Sebring. The day was filled with fabulous art, a hat contest, incredible food and of course, the Kentucky Derby.

HAL would like to thank all those who made this day possible. The board of directors lead by president Jeri Wohl worked tirelessly  to produce this successful event, along with Samantha Miller our office manager, and deserve our continued gratitude. 

Susan Milan and Donna Keith were responsible for the decoration and along with the help of the board and other volunteers, transformed the ranch into a spectacular Derby Event.

We continue to be supported by the generous donations of artwork by our members for both our silent and live auctions. Along with the incredible donations of vacation homes, boat rides, jewelry and more from other members of our community. We thank each and everyone that contributed to this years event.
