Two Kenwood Racing Partners, Ellen Gaynor and George Katzenberger, will take charge of Kenwood’s new Owner’s Concierge program, the company announced today. “We’ve grown rapidly in the past couple of years. We have a dozen partners and nearly 100 co-owners now, and we need a team in place for people to go to for help with track admissions & seating, and to take charge of planning our increasing number of parties, events and trips” explained Kenwood President Jack Czajkowski. “We are very fortunate that two of our partners and advisory board members with a world of business experience have volunteered to take on these tasks. George & Ellen are the people for our owners to reach out to first with any racing-related question or need”.

Originally from Essex County, NJ, George & his wife Shannon Kelly presently live in Monmouth Beach with their son Matt and attend races at Monmouth Park regularly.  George holds a PhD. in Biochemistry and Molecular Biology and after over 2 decades in the insurance industry is presently active with property renovation and management in Oceanport and Long Branch.

After graduating Rutgers University with a BA in Political Science and History, Ellen had a long and successful career in Retail for Macys Inc. as a Director of Product Development, Buyer, Merchandiser and Strategic Planner.
