JENNERSTOWN SPEEDWAY SEEKS SUPPORT FOR EMPLOYEE

Jennerstown, PA – Sept. 4, 2005 – Jennerstown Speedway management are seeking financial support for a true member of our extended racing family, one of our employees, Doug Winning. 

Doug is a dedicated security official with the Speedway, and a thirty year volunteer fire veteran, who has developed a life threatening medical situation which requires regular treatments. Throughout this trying ordeal, Doug has strived to continue his arduous race night duties, without objection or complaint. Unfortunately, Doug’s personal medical insurance has reached its maximum, which has forced the early termination of his treatments, resulting in the steadying decline of his condition.

Jennerstown Speedway has begun to collect contributions from fans, drivers, sponsors, and employees to help Doug manage to pay for the much needed treatments. A race night helmet drive, combined with other creative fund raising activities have already begun at Jennerstown, and will continue throughout the remainder of the 2005 race season, and beyond. We are now asking for additional assistance in our unrelenting efforts.

A special fund will soon be established with a local banking institution, so that concerned members of the racing community can join together, in order to help Doug continue his fight against the ever increasing effects of this disease. This information will be shared as soon as it becomes available. If you would care enough to contribute at this time you can contact the Jennerstown Speedway office by phone at 814.629.6677 or via the web address at www.jennerstown.com or by mail at:

While the nation bands together to help the multitude who have recently been devastated by natural disasters, it is still a time to remember that we can each help to improve the condition of a deserving individual, simply by taking a moment to walk in their shoes.

Thank You
