Come connect, enjoy good conversation, and spend an evening with fellow Colonels.
We look forward to seeing you there!
The commission of Kentucky Colonel is the highest title of honor bestowed by the Governor of Kentucky. It is recognition of an individual’s noteworthy accomplishments and outstanding service to our community, state, and nation.
The Honorable Order of Kentucky Colonels is a voluntary philanthropic organization.
A sitting Kentucky governor noted in a letter to the Kentucky Colonels that he commissioned individuals as Kentucky Colonels “as a Governor’s way of recognizing individuals for their service and accomplishments on behalf of others.”
If you’re a commissioned Colonel, you are a Kentucky Colonel for life.
Kentucky Colonels are unwavering in devotion to faith, family, commonwealth, and country. Passionate about being compassionate. Proud leaders who are gentle but strong in will and commitment. The generosity of our members enables the Kentucky Colonels – as a recognized 501 (c) (3) tax exempt nonprofit organization – to reach out and care for our children, support those in need, and preserve our rich heritage.
Then there are the social activities in which our history is indeed rich! From the Derby Eve galas of the 1930s to our trackside participation and post Derby Barbeques, and fall race days at historic Churchill Downs, the member colonels have historically found many ways to celebrate the Kentucky Colonels.

A handshake. A shared purpose. A little Commonwealth swagger.
The honor has already been bestowed.
Now comes the good part: living up to it.
There’s something powerful about carrying an honor for life. It means there’s always another opportunity to make it count: another neighbor to encourage, another cause to support, another person whose quiet work deserves recognition.
That invitation could be the beginning of someone’s next great Kentucky story.
