NY Race Track Chaplaincy Annual Brunch
The NY Race Track Chaplaincy serves the NY backstretch and farming communities of Belmont Park, Aqueduct Racetrack, and Saratoga Race Course providing enrichment programs for children, teens, and women, social services, recreational and educational programming, and non-denominational religious services.
The New York Race Track Chaplaincy will honor Hall of Fame jockey Johnny Velazquez and his wife Leona with the newly renamed John Hendrickson and Marylou Whitney Award for their longstanding support of the New York backstretch community at its 18th Annual Fundraising Brunch to be held on Wednesday, Aug. 13, 2025, at Saratoga National Golf Club in Saratoga Springs, N.Y.
“Johnny and Leona have demonstrated a deep commitment to the backstretch community and they continue to set a tremendous example for others to follow,” Ramón Dominguez, President of the Board of the NY Chaplaincy, said. “We are proud to honor them with this prestigious award.”
