Buoyed by the success of
last year's "Send a Soldier to The Rock" promotion, Rockingham
Speedway is partnering with the United Service Organization of North Carolina to
continue the program for the April 14 running of the NASCAR Camping World Truck
Series “North Carolina Education Lottery 200 at The Rock presented by
Cheerwine.”
Through Send a Soldier
to The Rock, race fans can purchase tickets to the event that will be
distributed by the USO of NC to servicemen and women and their families.
"Supporting our men
and women in uniform is something that I am passionate about," said
Rockingham Speedway President Andy Hillenburg. "They sacrifice so much for
our freedom and Send a Soldier to The Rock is a small way for the speedway and
fans to show our appreciation.
"Having the USO of
North Carolina come on board makes this so much more special. They have such a
long history of great work for our soldiers, sailors and marines and we won't
to support that work."
Rockingham Speedway will
be donating a portion of ticket sales from Send a Soldier to The Rock back to
the USO of NC.
"The USO of NC is
pleased to partner with the Rockingham Speedway to help enrich the lives of
service members and their families," said John Falkenbury, President of
the USO of NC. "The USO of NC and NASCAR have worked together on many
programs that allow our troops and families to enjoy races, spend time together
and to serve as visible reminders of their selfless service to all race. This
partnership helps us continue our mission to lift the spirits of those we serve
and demonstrates the love and support our community has for our troops."
