Corporate held a “Derby Days” fundraiser for Milwaukee’s United Performing Arts Fund on May 2, featuring lunch and games. About 50 people attended the event, many wearing elegant hats or other accessories in keeping with the theme.
The event raised $7,476 for the nonprofit, which provides funding for theater, music, and dance groups in the city and is celebrating is 50th anniversary this year.
Here are some photos from Derby Days.

And Jamie Sperk won the Derby Days raffle and surprised her son Mason with the prize, this set of horses. “He was so happy when I walked in the door with them!” she said. “He has not put them down since he got them.”
Consumer loan specialist JoEllen Brisk, staff auditor Nicole Curtis, senior consumer loan specialist Missy Hayburn, project manager Pat Ingelse, Mike Kellman, Kate Knox, payroll manager Cindy Lohrey, Janet Russell, and Barb Wisneski helped organize the Derby Days fun, said Colleen Moore — who wants to give them all a big thank-you for their work.
