The Kentucky Derby is coming to Shreveport this weekend, complete with bow ties and big hats! A new, fun, unique event that is sure to be the event of the year!

Cory and I had the pleasure of talking with Matt Snyder and Judd Smith this week to learn all things Derby Day. This all-inclusive event features music by Flow Tribe, food by Rhino Coffee, spirits by Wine Country Bistro and Bottle Shop and all the pageantry of the Kentucky Derby.
