Michigan International Speedway will kick off the holiday festivities with the 16th annual MIS Cares Charity Track and Toy Drive event on Saturday, Dec. 7 from 9:00 am – Noon. Fans are encouraged to donate a non-perishable food item or a new, unwrapped toy in exchange for a drive around the track in their own personal vehicle.
All donations from the event will support local charitable foundations including the Brooklyn Food Pantry, St. Mary’s of Good Counsel Parish Food Pantry, Jackson County Toys for Tots, and Lenawee County Toys for Tots.
“The MIS Cares Charity Track and Toy Drive is the perfect way to spread holiday cheer throughout our local community,” said Michigan International Speedway President Joe Fowler. “From all our staff at MIS, we’re so honored to help those in need during the holiday season.
