The Wallace Theater, in partnership with the Levelland Ladies Golf Association, is bringing all the excitement, elegance, and Southern charm of Churchill Downs straight to West Texas.
The community is invited to join in a weekend celebration filled with mint juleps, golf, high fashion, live music, and heart-pounding horse race fun at the Wallace Theater’s 2nd Annual Kentucky Derby Party.
The two-day event kicks off on Friday, May 2, at 5 p.m. at the Levelland Country Club with a 9hole golf scramble. The scramble will feature 4-person teams at $200 per team, limited to 18 teams. Registration includes entry to the Kentucky Derby Fundraiser on Saturday, a cookout dinner following the scramble, and eligibility for cash prizes.
Team sign-ups opened on April 15. Interested participants may register by calling Chad at the Pro Shop at 806-894-3288.
On Saturday, May 3, at 4 p.m., the spotlight shifts to the Wallace Theater for the Kentucky Derby Fundraiser Festivities held at the Levelland Country Club. Tickets are $40 and include entry, food, and entertainment. Each golf scramble participant will receive one ticket as part of their registration.
Saturday’s festivities will feature live music by the Jenni Dale Lord Band, a build-your-own derby hat bar, live and silent auctions, a 50/50 raffle, food and drinks, and the ever-popular Best Dressed Award. Attendees will also have the opportunity to watch the Derby live in a festive, community-driven atmosphere.
This weekend is more than just fun and fashion—it’s a fundraiser. Proceeds from the event will support the ongoing capital renovations at the Wallace Theater, helping to bring worldclass arts and entertainment to downtown Levelland.
“Don’t miss this run for the roses,” said organizers. “Let’s raise a glass to tradition, community, and a whole lot of fun. We can’t wait to see you at the races!”
