Tomorrow, Friday May 4^th, The Julep will be raising money for The James Graham Brown Cancer Center.  This Kentucky Derby Eve party, hosted by Honorary Chairs Coach Charlie and Vicki Strong, and Edward C. and Mary F. Glasscock, has raised over $2 million dollars for the cancer center since its inception.  The lead sponsor for the party is the Brown-Forman Corporation.
