Rutherford Races to Read

Get ready for Rutherford Races to Read, a family-friendly derby-style event full of fun and excitement! Mark your calendars for April 12th and join us as sponsors race inflatable horses with literary-inspired names.

Cheer on your favorite horse, show off your best derby hats and shoes, and enjoy a day of community fun—all while supporting literacy and our local libraries.

Proceeds benefit the Rutherford County Library Foundation, helping provide grants to enhance services at six library branches and a bookmobile.

Each ticket gets admission to the event and 2 tickets to "wager" on a horse to win.
