COVID-19 relief programs discussed during horsemen's webinar
Horsemen on April 3 were provided with a comprehensive outline of federal and state programs geared toward financial relief now available because of the coronavirus (COVID-19) pandemic, and they also received an update on the status of the return of live racing in two states.
More than 400 individuals participated in an afternoon webinar, moderated by MTHA Executive Director David Richardson, and sponsored by the Maryland Thoroughbred Horsemen's Association, Pennsylvania Thoroughbred Horsemen's Association and the Pennsylvania Horsemen's Benevolent and Protective Association. Speakers with expertise in the loan or grant programs explained how they work and eligibility requirements.
"I want to repeat the action items," said Bill Shaughnessy of the Gordon Feinblatt law firm in Baltimore. "This money is out there. And it can be grant money, but there is a short window. Go get your money."
