The Essex Inn is having a Kentucky Derby party Saturday, May 5th. The party begins at 3 pm with drinks, appetizers, and a live horse auction (for charity). There will also be a contest for the ladies as to who is wearing the best and most creative hats. Look up photos of women attending horse races to get ideas if you don’t already own fancy hats. The race will begin at 5 pm and dinner will be served directly after. It is $50/person to attend. You must make reservations ahead of time to attend. Call 518-963-4400 to make reservations.
