Lanark Food Bank is a local charity that helps feed needy families in our valley community. This week, in association with Town and Country Chrysler, our goal is to collect as much non perishable food items as we can in support of the Lanark Food Bank. I do not know what it is like to go hungry, and it is hard to imagine that individuals and families in our community do. Town and Country Chrysler, who is our sponsor this week, does a lot of charity and fundraising work for a number of different organizations in the valley. After having a discussion, with Hugh Colton of Town and Country Chrysler we decided that the Lanark Food Bank was a great choice to raise funds and food for this coming Wednesday.
So on behalf of Capital City Speedway, we will donate the proceeds from our weekly 50/50 draw to the Lanark Food Bank and I will personally donate 10 lbs of food to the cause. I challenge all of our fans, drivers, crew members and sponsors to do the same. I hope you all feel as good as I do inside, when together we can make a difference in someones life. In this case, it will make someone not go hungry.
Please bring your non perishable food items with you next week and help make a difference. If you forget, we will be accepting cash in lieu of food. We like the kind that jingles, but we prefer the kind that folds.
See you at the races.
