From Bob Baker
Built “one brick at a time” by sprint car racing enthusiasts across America, the National Sprint Car Hall of Fame & Museum Foundation wishes to announce its first brick engraving date for 2011.
Sprint car fans everywhere are encouraged to make a tax-deductible gift of $250 on or before April 25, 2011. When you do, a brick bearing your name or tribute (for example: to a family member or favorite driver) will be inscribed prior to April 30th, the start of the 2011 racing season at nearby Knoxville Raceway. You may select the permanent home for your donated brick from among four locations: the building’s foyer or lobby, a memorial wall in the museum, or near the elevators at
the entrance to the Hall of Fame on the second-floor.
Since 1989, donations for inscribed bricks have supported the operations and programs of the National Sprint Car Hall of Fame & Museum. In 2011, the organization is launching an “Expand the Dream” campaign to add staging and display space to the Museum as well as funding for expanded programs. Donations for inscribed bricks are more important than ever, according to Executive Director, Bob Baker. Baker notes that “The next ten years will easily be the most exciting in our organization’s history.”
