A hero is a person who is admired or idealized for courage, outstanding achievements, or noble qualities. There are heroes all around the horse racing industry and the Race Track Chaplaincy of America (RTCA) would like to recognize some of them.
The Race Track Chaplaincy of America (RTCA) is currently seeking nominees for it's 20th Annual White Horse Award (WHA). The White Horse Award is given to individual(s) who has done something heroic on behalf of human or horse in the past year. The winner of the 2021 RTCA White Horse Award was Marshall Allen, who saved the life of a long-time owner at Emerald Downs.
This year's White Horse Award winner will be honored by a special video presentation at the Race Track Chaplaincy's event on Wednesday, Nov. 2, in the Silks Lawn Chalet at Keeneland in Lexington, Ky., just prior to the beginning of the Breeders' Cup World Championships. The White Horse Award has a long-standing history of recognizing some of the unsung heroes of horse racing, whether their actions were headline-grabbing or the quiet and not-so-obvious kind of heroism.
To submit a nomination for the White Horse Award, visit http://www.rtcanational.org/events for a complete list of rules and selection criteria, as well as nomination forms.
The deadline for submission is Aug. 24, 2022. For more information, please contact the RTCA National Service Center at (859) 410-7822.
