July 19th through the 22nd will be a weekend of horsepower in the Horse Capital of the World. Since it began in 2004, the Keeneland Concours d\u2019Elegance has become a community event with national participation. This year, over 160 cars from brass era steamers to exotic future classics will compete at one of Kentucky\u2019s iconic horse racing venues, Keeneland Race Course. The concours and all the associated events and activities are charitable fundraisers in support of the Kentucky Children\u2019s Hospital.<\/p>\n

The weekend\u2019s festivities will begin with the Bourbon Tour on Thursday, July 19th. The tour will commence with breakfast at Heirloom Restaurant in Midway. From there, the group will make its way through picturesque horse country to the Old Friends Farm, a thoroughbred retirement farm. Lunch will take place at Wallace Station in Versailles, part of the family of restaurants from Chef Ouita Michel. The trip will conclude with a VIP tour of the Lexington Brewing & Distilling Co., led by Mark Coffman, Master Distiller, and Ken Lee, Master Brewer. This tour is an all-inclusive experience, and only 12 spots are available. To find out more, visit http:\/\/keenelandconcours.com\/events\/bourbon-tour\/<\/a><\/p>\n

The weekend\u2019s main event, the Keeneland Concours d\u2019Elegance, will be held at Keeneland on July 21st beginning at 9:00 A.M. This year\u2019s Concours showcases 160 collector cars and motorcycles competing in 20 judged classes. The featured marque this year is BMW, with classes devoted to BMW motorsports, sports cars and motorcycles. The Concours will also showcase a class of well-preserved carriages; in keeping with its equestrian surroundings. The awards ceremony will start at 3:00 P.M. when the winning cars from each class will roll across the awards platform.<\/p>\n

The Keeneland Concours has become a gathering place for regional car clubs, and each year the membership of these clubs compete to see who can raise the most money for KentuckyChildren\u2019s Hospital. Last year, the car club paddock raised $3,974.11, bringing their total raised over the last ten years to $54,095.62.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n
