Congratulations to Penny Wesley, who has been named the 2024 Winner of the General Manager’s Award, given out annually for Meritorious Service to Truro Raceway.
Penny was instrumental in the planning and fundraising of the Harness The Hope event this season, which raised funds for two worthy area organizations. She also interacted with Hubtown Horse Owners Club members as a liaison on behalf of both the Wink McCallum Stable and Truro Raceway. She also assisted management with several other promotional endeavours in the 2024 season.
“It was a great pleasure working with Penny. She was the driving force behind our Harness the Hope fundraising, organizing volunteers and the various initiatives. She and her committee raised$3,862 apiece for the We Care About Cancer Fund and the Colchester East Hants Hospice Society. She was also great interacting with the Hubtown Horse Owners and helped me with some very worthwhile feedback on the planning of several other events this season. She is a very deserving recipient to be recognized.” said Truro Raceway General Manager Steve Fitzsimmons.
