Kentucky is simply synonymous with the Kentucky Derby at Churchill Downs. The actual race is the first Saturday in May, but it would not be complete without the two week long Kentucky Derby Festival preceding it, including the opening ceremony – the world’s largest fireworks display – “Thunder Over Louisville.” When the big moment arrives, all eyes train on the racetrack – all for an event lasting not quite 2 minutes! You can also take a guided walking tour of Churchill Downs during your next SLP job.

If horseracing is not your thing, there is still plenty to see in Kentucky when you take an SLP job in this great state!  Kentucky has an abundance of outdoor activities, theatre, music, fabulous dining and sleepy towns just waiting to be explored during your travel speech therapy assignment.   Search our speech therapy jobs below or apply now.
