Night at the Races
May 30, 2026
The Night at the Races is Tiger Water Polo's biggest fundraiser!
If you have never experienced the joy of betting on a horse race, you are in for a treat! We have a professional caller call out the horses (that attendees name) from old horse races we watch on a big screen. Some names are R-rated and others very cute or named for businesses. Buffet dinner and soft drinks are included in the cost of your ticket.
1) ATTIRE: We invite everyone to dress in traditional “derby” style fashion, if they’d like. Think Kentucky Derby attire! Wide-brimmed or fascinator hats on the ladies. Tropical colors in bold stripes or busy plaid and bright pastel pants for the gentlemen, or a classic navy or seersucker blazer is always in style.
2) CASH: Bring your small bills for betting on the horse races. Bets are $2/horse, so ones and fives are appreciated.
3) CHECKBOOKS: Bring your checkbook or cash, in case you are the winner of any baskets. Payment will be collected at the end of the evening for any baskets won.
4) DONATIONS: For anyone who is unable to attend, please consider making a donation by clicking here or purchasing an item from our Amazon wishlist here https://www.amazon.com/registries/gl/guest-view/BGHR0RR0A8Q5?ref_=cm_sw_r_em_ud_ggr-subnav-share_ZBWNB97F8ZB14QVER4SK .
5) BYOB: You are welcome to bring your own beer, wine, or spirits of choice. There will also be a cash bar with the same options, including mixers and garnishes, should you prefer, or if you run out of what you brought!
6) “BASKET OF CHEER”: If you’d like to contribute to the “Basket of Cheer” for the silent auction, please bring a bottle of top shelf alcohol, or a nice wine as your donation, and we’ll add it to the basket.
7) VOLUNTEERS: During the horse races, we need 5 volunteers at a time to work the bidding table. These people simply sit at a table, take people’s money and hand them tickets. Easy, peasy! We’ll be asking our polo parents attending to take a turn at the table. It doesn’t have to be for all 10 races but we encourage you to take a shift at some point in the evening.
8) HOURS & LOCATION: The doors will open at 6:15pm. We “officially” start checking everyone in at 6:30pm. Dinner will be served at 7 pm with races beginning at 7:30 and wrapping up by 10:30 pm.
