11:30am - Lunch - Keeneland Track Kitchen
12:30pm - Keeneland Library, 4201 Versailles Road
We are pleased to offer OLLI members a second opportunity to visit the Keeneland Library. The Keeneland library was established in 1939 and is the foremost research/reference library preserving the history of horseracing.
We are happy to introduce the library’s newest exhibit and education initiative to our OLLI members. The exhibit “Raíces: The Making of Latino Legacies in Racing”, showcases groundbreaking Latino figures in the Thoroughbred racing and breeding industry from the late 1800s to today. The exhibit features biographical vignettes, photographs, memorabilia, awards, and trophies of Latinos in the sport from across the Americas to highlight the breadth and depth of their indelible marks on the industry. Raíces – or roots – are emblematic of their respective stories, individual and collective heritage, and legacies sowed and sustained at every level of the sport over time.
We will start off the day at 11:30am with an on your own lunch at the Keeneland Track Kitchen. We have reserved the Meeting Room at the Track Kitchen for our group.
At 12:30pm we will each drive to the Keeneland Library and meet Director, Ms. Roda Ferraro, for an interactive tour of this special exhibit.
