The Race Track Chaplaincy of America (RTCA) will host its annual Night of Faith, Hope, and Love on Tuesday, October 28, 2025, at the Del Mar Thoroughbred Club in the Trackside Chalet, as part of the Breeders' Cup World Championship week festivities.
The evening is designed to uplift and inspire the horse racing community through messages of hope and spiritual encouragement, while also highlighting RTCA's chaplaincy programs nationwide. These programs provide critical emotional, spiritual, and practical support to the unsung heroes who work behind the scenes in racing--from jockeys, grooms and hot walkers to horse owners, track leadership, maintenance and food service personnel.
Following dinner, RTCA will honor its prestigious 2025 Community Service Award and 2025 White Horse Award winners, celebrating individuals who have gone above and beyond to make a difference within the industry. These awards recognize exceptional acts of selflessness and service, reflecting the heart of RTCA's mission.
Serving as keynote speaker is Bob Goff, internationally acclaimed author of New York Times bestsellers Love Does, Everybody Always, and Dream Big. As the founder of the nonprofit Love Does, Goff leads humanitarian projects in 14 countries. Known for his vibrant storytelling and message of radical love and purpose, Goff brings a unique energy to the evening, perfectly aligned with the RTCA vision.
Industry members, media representatives, and community leaders are warmly invited to attend as RTCA honors racetrack workers and celebrates the power of faith in action.
