Denver Derby Party: Where Epic Fun Meets Real Impact
This isn’t just another party; it’s a legacy. The Denver Derby Party started with a few friends wanting to honor Sean “Ranch” Lough, a guy who knew how to live life to the fullest. Tragically, he was taken too soon, but his spirit lives on. Fast forward 20+ years, and the Denver Derby Party has become a powerhouse, funding the Sean Ranch Lough Foundation. We’re all about giving students from all over the world the chance to chase their dreams through four-year college scholarships.
Sean believed in the power of education, but he also knew life was meant to be lived. That’s why we throw one hell of a party! We bring together sponsors, donors, and you – our awesome guests – to raise serious funds while having an unforgettable time.
And here’s the best part: 100% of every dollar raised goes straight to the SRL Foundation, making a real difference in students’ lives. So, come join us, celebrate Sean’s legacy, and party with a purpose!

About Sean ‘Ranch’ Lough
The SRL Foundation was started in memory of Sean, who was a dear friend, brother and son who tragically passed away in June of 2001 as a result of a mountain biking accident. In his twenty-nine years of life, Ranch accomplished more than many do in a lifetime. One of his greatest attributes was his ability to live every day to its fullest and have a good time, while focusing on accomplishing the high goals he set for himself.
Although his life and bright future were cut short, his spirit will remain in everyone he knew and, thanks to sponsors and donors like you, his legacy will provide scholarships for deserving young students. This legacy lives on as each year we throw the biggest and best Derby party in the country in order to to raise money and provide four-year scholarships to those who would otherwise not be able to attend college.
As we prepare to celebrate 20 years of throwing the biggest and best Derby Party in the country, we are excited to say that Sean’s life means more and more to each one of us.
