The Kentucky Equine Management Internship received the 2016 William T. Young Humanitarian Award at the annual Kentucky-Bred Champions Awards Luncheon held Friday, Apr. 21 at Keeneland Racecourse. Established by the Kentucky Thoroughbred Owners and Breeders and the Kentucky Thoroughbred Association to recognize people and organizations within the equine industry for their humanitarian efforts, the William T. Young award has been honoring recipients since 2003.
“On behalf of all the 800-plus KEMI graduates and our Board of Directors, I am so very pleased that the KTOB has recognized KEMI with this award,” said Leslie Janecka, Coordinator of the KEMI program.
KEMI received the award in conjunction with Godolphin Flying Start, a two-year, international program that focuses on management and leadership training for the Thoroughbred industry.
