Derby Day is Frederica Academy’s signature event fundraiser. Since 2002, Derby Day has generated more than $1,000,000 to help enrich the minds, bodies and spirits of hundreds of Frederica students.
The co-chairs for the 11th Annual Frederica Academy Derby Day are Carla and Vassa Cate and Jennifer and Buff Leavy.
The event will take place on Saturday, May 5, 2012, at the Sea Island Retreat Clubhouse. Participants will enjoy an afternoon of spectacular horse-race viewing, exciting live and silent auctions and great southern fare and fellowship. The event will conclude with a post-race band party.
