Speediatrics Gets a Visit and Donation from NASCAR’s
Team Red Bull

The 2008 NASCAR Sprint Pit Crew Challenge Championship went to Team Red Bull, which competed on behalf of Speediatrics at the competition in May. The annual challenge provides a chance for crew members’ families to watch them compete without the race day traffic and without the loud noise. They also get a much closer view than during a race weekend.

On July 4, members of Team Red Bull took time out of their busy schedules at the track to distribute NASCAR bears to patients in the Betty Jane France Center for Pediatrics (Speediatrics). They also presented Foundation Executive Director Joe Petrock and Assistant Speediatrics Manager Diane Fox with a check for $23,793.25 to benefit Speediatrics.
