Blue Grass Farms Charities will hold its annual Festival of Christmas December 8 and 9, 2015 at  the Thoroughbred Training Center.  Over 906 individuals attended last year, 477 were children. Each child in attendance received a gift bag with two toys, books, hats and gloves and a treat bag.

We had a total of 30 volunteers help with preparations and at the event, plus a special volunteer cookie brigade of 39. The holiday program consisted of Lafayette Senior High School orchestra playing holiday music and a puppet show presented by a community volunteer.
