ALBANY,GA --
Folks were raising money while celebrating the 138th run of the Kentucky Derby over at Stonebridge Country Club!

It was the most exciting two minutes in sports!

Food, fun and of course those hats were a sight to see!

SOWEGA Council on Aging put on the event to raise money for their many services, such as Meals on Wheels.

They held a silent auction, live auction, a hat parade, and betting games.

The event, named Juleps, Jockeys and Jazz, is in its first year.

They hope to make it SOWEGA's premiere event of the year!
