Throughout the July 23-26 weekend we spent our time at Harborfest in Oswego, NY. We were lucky enough to have beautiful weather the entire weekend, at least until we were just about to pack up on Sunday when the thunderstorms hit. We both got soaked but managed to salvage all of our set-up. We had huge crowds all day, both Friday and Saturday. Everyone enjoyed playing in our racing modules and signing up for free, to win tickets to the NASCAR race. Spongebob even stopped by to try out the simulators! Their were national trampoline aerobatics performing right nearby that kept us entertained. They put a great show on for everyone at Harborfest. We were also joined by our good friends from the Corning Museum of Glass who were giving away glass figurines in a free raffle as well as doing hourly glass blowing demonstrations. This was one of our last big stop of the summer which means NASCAR @ the glen is right around the summer!

Syracuse Nationals weekend
We had a blast this weekend and saw hundreds maybe even a thousand plus beautiful old cars. Any of you that weren't there really missed out on a great time. McDonalds was there with us and gave away tickets to the Heluva Good Sour Cream Dips at the Glen race on August 6-9. They had many lucky winners who will either be: first time goers to the track or will be headed back to enjoy the festivities they've come to love. This weekend we are headed to Oswego Harborfest for what is sure to be a crazy time. We can't wait to see all your faces out there.
One of Lees dream cars is pictured above. It is a 1968 Camaro!
Don't forget to get your tickets to the race! It is approaching fast!!!

Roseland Water Park
We had an adventorous day at the waterpark in Canandaigua on Wednesday. NASCAR provided us with some free model racecars of the Ryan Newman "Kodak" car to give to some lucky fans. They were gone before we knew it. The weather was beautiful and all of the kids were chompin at the bit to check out our car and play in the modules. Lee had to try out some of the water rides which he said "Were crazy!" Some things never change.

Ithaca YMCA Summer Camp
Wednesday, July 8th, we traveled to Ithaca to entertain the kids at the local YMCA summer camp. The racing modules were a huge hit with the kids. Our posters were a huge hit and the kids grabbed everything they could get their hands on. It was great to watch the kids enjoying the beautiful weather and being able to add to their excitement with Kyle Bush's Nationwide series car.

Indy / July 4th Weekend
The weather and racing turned out great for the July 4th weekend at the glen! The weekend ended with the number 18 car of Justin Wilson pulling into victory lane and taking home the checkered for the first time in his career. Everything turned out great for us. We saw the faces of some lucky winners that were chosen by Jack and I for wearing the stars and stripes hat throughout the weekend. We gave them access to the pre-race and victory lane for the Grand Prix. They all enjoyed this experience of a lifetime.
