AGC OPENS NOMINATIONS FOR 2012 GREYHOUND ADOPTION PERSON OF YEAR

 The American Greyhound Council (AGC) is now accepting nominations for the 2012 Greyhound Adoption Person of the Year (GAPY) Award. The award is given annually to an individual who has made exceptional contributions to greyhound adoption.

Nominations should be submitted online via the "Adoption Person of the Year" button on the right side of this page. Nomination forms must be filled out completely to be valid.

The GAPY award was launched by the American Greyhound Track Operators Association (AGTOA), and became an AGC program in 2010. The 2012 winner will receive a special trophy named in honor of Linda Jensen, the 2010 GAPY award winner, who passed away in 2011.

The 2012 award will be presented in spring 2013 at the annual meeting of the AGTOA in las Vegas. The winner and a guest receive an expense-paid trip to Las Vegas for the award presentation and a $500 check for his/her adoption group.
