Kentucky Derby Day 2011 HATS!
A Baby Boomer in Appalachia
One of the highlights of Kentucky Derby Week is always the GFWC/KFWC Spring Fashion Show and luncheon. Just because we are 240 miles from Louisville, does not mean we Appalachian women do not love our Kentucky Derby….and the hats that go with them.
Here’s a few snapshots from the Women’s Club Event. Hope you enjoy!


Happy 100th Birthday to Ms. May Green!
