The Kentucky Derby Museum has added three new members to its Board of Directors: Business First publisher Lisa Benson, philanthropist Rhonda Jo Conner, and attorney Craig C. Dilger.

“The Kentucky Derby Museum is fortunate to add three impressive and accomplished minds on its Board of Directors,” said chair Glenn Haygood. “I'm excited to see our new members bring a fresh perspective to the table as the museum prepares for two big milestones–the 50th anniversary of Secretariat's Derby win in 2023 and the 150th anniversary of the Kentucky Derby in 2024.”

Board Members Mark Bacon, W. Edwin Lewis, and Chris Whelan are departing after completing their terms with the Board.

In addition, Katie Fussenegger, vice president of the museum, has been promoted to executive vice president.

“I'm thrilled to reward Katie with this promotion as a reflection of her impactful work at the Kentucky Derby Museum,” said Patrick Armstrong, President & CEO. “Katie has a bright future ahead, and we are grateful to have her talents leading the Team here at Kentucky Derby Museum.”
