National Kentucky Day
We began honoring each state in the order they were born in the union, beginning with Hawaii and ending with Hawaii on Independence Day. We feature a small portion of each state's past, foods, and the people who make up the state. So much more to discover; we can't help but celebrate our beautiful country even more!

Kentuckians are highly skilled in athletic pursuits both on and off the court. In Louisville, the Kentucky Derby, one of the Triple Crown's most popular events, takes place in May every year. Established in 1875, the derby has many traditions, including serving mint juleps.
They maintain a fierce rivalry with their Hoosier neighbors on both the court and field. Basketball, in particular, has a long history in the state.
