West Point Thoroughbreds' Terry Finley and retired Hall of Fame jockey Ramon Dominguez have been named chairman and president, respectively, of the New York Race Track Chaplaincy.
Finley has been an active supporter of the Chaplaincy for several years and he and his wife Debbie were honored last August for their continued support of the backstretch community and the chaplaincy in particular. Dominguez has been on the Chaplaincy's Board of Directors since 2012.
“Terry and Ramon both maintain a deep appreciation for the importance of our work,” said Humberto Chavez, the chaplain in New York. “They are universally respected and we are thrilled to have them at the helm as we continue to pursue activities and programs designed to improve the quality of life for our backstretch community.”
The entire board of directors is comprised of Finley (chairman), Dominguez (president), Nancy C. Kelly (vice president) Dorothy Bagnato (treasurer), John Andrew Kay (secretary), Bob Curran Jr., Will Phipps, Vincent Pisani, Kathy Theroux-Reynolds, Johnny Velazquez and John Young.
The New York Race Track Chaplaincy of America ministers to the backstretch community with children's enrichment, social service, and recreational programs, as well as educational opportunities and non-denominational religious services.
