Once again, THE Speedway is open! Today was Rookie
Orientation, and from the TommyD Trackside Report, this was likely one of the
busier Opening Day's in several years--AND the big bonus of the day was
absolutely wonderful weather! We're certain that this 92nd running of the Indy
500 will be simply superb and we share the extreme excitement that all Open
Wheel race fans are sharing with the recent unification of Open Wheel racing.
Your Camp and Brew crew have been working off and on all
winter, and feverishly this spring to finalize all our planning for this Seventh
Annual event! We're in the home stretch now and Glenn from Colorado is just 5
days from jumping into his motor home and heading east to the Racing Mecca of
the world. Fortunately, the bank approved the second mortgage to pay for the
fuel.
As always, we'll be setting up on Thursday, May 22 and
will be ready for visitors by the early afternoon. Make sure you plan on
stopping by often to enjoy race-talk with other fans, hoisting a cool beverage
(we do have non-alcoholic beverages), and helping us support
Brian's Wish.
Here are some of the things that you've come to expect
from Camp and Brew:
-
Collector's cups
-
Ice Cold Miller Lite Beer on tap (and assorted
non-alcoholic beverages)
-
50/50 race pools to benefit
Brian's Wish (WIN up to
$100!)
-
LIVE webcam (2008 will have TWO webcams!)
-
Multimedia on our new large projection screen and
sound system
-
7th Anniversary T-shirts
-
Photo montage from 2007's event
-

Large hospitality tent
-
Awesome pulled-pork sandwiches from the
folks-formerly-known-as-Chez Bubba
