STAFFORD SPEEDWAY TEAMING WITH FIRST NIAGARA TO COLLECT RELIEF SUPPLIES FOR
MASSACHUSETTS TORNADO VICTIMS

Stafford Speedway and First Niagara are teaming up
to help victims of the recent Massachusetts tornado. As part of the First
Niagara Independence Day Fireworks Celebration this Friday night, Stafford
Speedway will be collecting donation items at the main gate that will be
used to assist Massachusetts residents who were affected by the tornado.

Stafford Speedway is offering a special deal for fans who bring a donation
item with them to the track this Friday night. Any adult who brings a
donation item with them to the track this Friday night will receive $3.00
off an Adult General Admission ticket for the First Niagara Independence Day

The following is a list of items that are needed the most: Work Gloves,
Gatorade, Insect Repellent, Coolers, Plastic Bins & Boxes, Tylenol, Large
Trash Bags, Gasoline Cards, Sunscreen, Canopy Tents, Tarps & Ropes, Internet
Cards, Bandages, Chain Saws and Chain Saw Parts, and Trash Barrels.

“We’re happy to be partnered with First Niagara in this relief supply
endeavor,” said Stafford COO/GM Mark Arute. “The Monson, Mass. area is very
close to home for us here at Stafford. There are a lot of fans, drivers,
and crew members from that area that come to Stafford every Friday night and
we’re happy to be able to do a small part in helping those who are in need
of these supplies get back on track.”

While Stafford Speedway will serve as a drop point this Friday night for
relief items, donations can be made at any time at any of the following
