Fairfield, CT - Spinning off from traditional Kentucky Derby celebrations, the Bigelow Center for Senior Activities will be celebrating Derby Week in a big way by hosting its first-ever Bigelow Downs -- on Sunday, May 6, from 2-5pm.
Giving a nod to long-time Center supporter Bigelow Tea, six wooden horses named Constant Comment, Earl Grey, Mint Medley, Orange & Spice, English Breakfast and Cindi’s Tea Bag, will race down a track. Open to the public, Fairfield residents are invited to join the festivities, pick their favorite horses and wager $2 bets to win cash prizes.
All bets are that it’s going to be FUN!
Tickets are $5, available at the Center. For more information call 203-256-3166.
