CATRA Kentucky Derby Gala and Auction 2026
Online Auction for Capital Area Therapeutic Riding Association (CATRA)Apr 13, 2026 8:00 AM to May 01, 2026 9:00 PM
Our Third online auction and Gala was a huge success raising over $45,000. The online portion of the event was thru Bidding for Good and we received donations from 50 states and bidders from 31 states. We got amazing national coverage and promoted donors and sponsors on our website, thru social media posts, email blasts, Bidding for Good nationwide community and in the Gala Program. The Gala was sold out with over 160 people attending. Corporate sponsors received tickets with their sponsorship and almost all of the sponsors used their tickets and attended. Our sponsors included Thrivent , Stonebridge Financial, JBT Bank and Invariant Financial along with others.
On 5/1/2026 we will hold our fourth annual Gala celebrating over 40 years in business which again will include an online auction starting April 13th. The Gala will be the conclusion of our event and include food, entertainment and a silent and LIVE auction, and a raffle. Donors and sponsors will receive promotions thru email blasts, social media, event programs, and CATRA website. We also hold a post Gala online auction because of late donation arrivals and opportunties received during the gala.
