The rolling hills and their beautiful stable facilities will create a breathtaking setting for the Stables &amp; Silks party.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>The nation\u2019s foremost horseracing event, the Kentucky Derby, is the backdrop and theme of the 5<sup>th<\/sup> annual Soroptimist International Derby Day Party, benefiting the funding of scholarships for women in Williamson County to Columbia State Community College and Bridges Domestic Violence Shelter.
