Diamond Derby Benefit Launch Party

Start the new year in true Mayfield style as we celebrate 75 years on Bellefontaine at our Diamond Derby Launch Party!

Join us on Friday, January 9, 2026, from 5:30 - 7:30 p.m. in Strub Hall as we officially begin the countdown to our most important fundraising event of the year, the Diamond Derby Benefit on February 28, 2026.

Enjoy an evening filled with:

• Jazzy piano music
• A magician from Magic Castle
• Cocktails and light bites
• Wonderful company as we toast 75 years on Bellefontaine and the exciting year ahead!

Purchase your Benefit ticket before or at the Launch Party and you will be entered to win a raffle of two exclusive Benefit Pre-Party tickets to watch the final race of the day from the Chandelier Room VIP Balcony at the Santa Anita Racetrack. This is a truly special opportunity you will not want to miss! Tickets will be available soon.

In the spirit of our 75th anniversary, we kindly ask guests who plan to attend to consider a $75 donation or a $75 gift card to support the Benefit auction.

We hope you will join us to celebrate this milestone anniversary, reconnect with our community, and launch a Diamond Derby season that honors our past while investing in Mayfield’s future.
