Home of Louisville's best Kentucky Derby Party!

Well, the 2009 Hillbilly Outfield Kentucky Derby Party was a huge success. Thank everyone sincerely for supporting such a great cause and having so much fun at the same time. The Hillbilly Coalition is grateful for all the help from volunteers, as well as monetary contributions from our guests and our sponsors. We can't wait to see everyone again this year for our special 10th anniversary and will do our best keep you updated with current Outfield news, so stay tuned!

The Hillbilly Outfield Kentucky Derby party is hosted annually by a group of volunteers called the Hillbilly Coalition. The Hillbilly Outfield is a huge Kentucky Derby party thrown by Jim Hafendorfer (of Middletown) and the rest of the coalition members in the spirit of and during the weekend of the actual Kentucky Derby. The Hillbilly Outfield consists of an entire weekend overflow of free drinks, food, live music, audio and video Derby coverage, games, maybe even a dip in the pool, and more, with the purchase of a wristband. Most importantly, however, the driving motivation behind the event is to acquire funding for the Make-A-Wish Foundation ® through ticket sales, donations, the silent auction, etc., making dreams come true for t he children in our area. The Hillbilly Outfield Kentucky Derby party is open to the public and gets bigger and bigger every year. Thank you so much everyone (campers, visitors, helpers, and all) for an amazing and magic weekend of huge support and tons of fun! We sincerely hope you enjoyed the 2009 Hillbilly Outfield, and look forward to seeing you for the 10th annual Hillbilly Outfield and Kentucky Derby 136.
