Annual Blood Drive Set For September 16 At Martinsville Speedway

Race fans will be able to help save lives and make their own racing experience even better through an American Red Cross blood drive at Martinsville Speedway on September 16.

The American Red Cross will be set up in the infield of Martinsville Speedway from 12 p.m. to 6 p.m. on September 16.

Anyone registering to donate a pint of blood will receive a certificate for a free ticket to the NASCAR Sprint Cup and Truck Series Practice Day on October 28. The TUMS Fast Relief 500 NASCAR Sprint Cup race is scheduled for October 30.

“We know how NASCAR fans give back to their communities and this is just another great opportunity for folks to help their community,” said Martinsville Speedway president Clay Campbell. “It’s one of those things we love to be involved with. I know many of our employees will be rolling up their sleeves and we expect many other folks to help out, too.”

To make an appointment, call 1.800.GIVE.LIFE. While appointments are suggested, non-scheduled donors will be accepted on the day of the drive.
