Secretariat Premiere to benefit The Race For Education

Friday, September 17, 2010

The Race for Education and the Secretariat Foundation

are pleased to invite you to attend a private advance screening of the new Walt Disney film, "Secretariat" to benefit the Race for Education.  The screening will be held in Lexington, Kentucky at the Kentucky Theatre on Sunday, October 3rd at 6:00 pm. Guests are invited to join the attending racing celebrities and Hollywood stars in a red carpet walk prior to the screening and enjoy an exclusive cocktail reception at nearby Portofino's restaurant following the film.

As one of The Secretariat Foundation's preferred charitable organizations, The Race for Education will be able to directly influence the amount of revenue we receive from the event in the form of a unique "participation" structure regarding the screening. The Race for Education has been assigned the code (RFE) that can be keyed in at the time of your on-line ticket purchase to track our organization's participation in the event. The Secretariat Foundation will essentially reward the level of participation with a corresponding allocation percentage of generated funds. Simply put, the more seats we fill, the more revenue the Race for Education will receive.

Two different ticket options are available for the screening event. You may purchase a $125 per person ticket which includes one General Admission screening ticket and general access to the cocktail party following the screening. Also available is a $250 per person Premium Admission which includes one premium reserved seating screening ticket and select reserved seating at the cocktail party. Here, guests will have the opportunity to personally meet the filmmakers, featured cast, and members of the original Meadow Racing Stable.

Tickets are available on a first-come basis exclusively thru www.secretariat.com and can be purchased on-line at: http://secretariatcom.stores.yahoo.net/screening.html PLEASE MAKE SURE TO USE CHARITY CODE: RFE

You may also purchase tickets by phone by calling 502 893-7997. Please bear in mind this event is expected to sell out quickly.  We strongly encourage that you purchase your tickets as soon as possible to confirm your attendance at this exciting event.
