Hillbilly Days Gives Back 💙

Today, the Southeast Kentucky Chamber was proud to present a check for $76,000 to Hillbilly Clan 1 Outhouse 2, benefiting Shriners Children's - Lexington and their mission of providing life-changing care to children and families.

This annual contribution is made possible through the tremendous success of Hillbilly Days!

For nearly five decades, Hillbilly Days has not only brought visitors from across the region to Pikeville, but it has also helped support the incredible work of Shriners Children's Hospital. We are honored to continue this tradition of giving back and making a difference in the lives of children in need.

Thank you to everyone who helps make Hillbilly Days possible each year. Your support continues to create a lasting impact far beyond the festival grounds.
