Chestnut Hall Fall StoryFest\, a fundraiser for the Thoroughbred Retirement Foundation\, is scheduled for Saturday\, October 15 starting at 2 pm. Held on the grounds of the picturesque sanctuary farm\, StoryFest combines live music\, storytelling tents and loads of fun for kids all to benefit the TRF&rsquo\;s herd of retired racehorses.
\n\nThere will be ghost stories and personal memoirs from Kentucky Storytellers\, \;Chip &\; Diane Bailey \;as well as the story of the historic Chestnut Hall\, a tale that started just after the French and Indian war. \;
\n\nAt 3 pm\, there will be a front porch concert from the bluegrass band\, \;Ida Clare \;alongside activities for the whole family. Our Kid&rsquo\;s Corral\, sponsored by LDG Development\, will feature a storytelling tent\, pumpkin decorating\, facepainting and interaction with our friendly group of retired Thoroughbred racehorses. \;
\n\nAs the day winds down\, we&rsquo\;ll gather for \;Bluegrass &\; Boos \;in the pasture\, sponsored by Zeppa&rsquo\;s Landscaping Service. We will kick things off at 6:30 with the vocal harmonies and contemporary instrumentation of the \;Mama Said String Band. \; \;Acclaimed storyteller\, \;Col. Bob Thompson \;will bring haunted tales to the stage\, including some from Oldham Co. \; \; \;
\n\nThere will be food and beverage trucks onsite all day with delicious offerings to complement the festive atmosphere.
\n\nGuests can purchase a ticket for the afternoon or for \;Bluegrass &\; Boos. \; A discounted full day pass is available . Blankets and stadium chairs are encouraged for both events and we suggest all guests wear practical footwear!
