For the seventh consecutive year, Prairie Meadows will continue as entitlement sponsor for the July 13 ARCA race. Prairie Meadows has been the sponsor of the Automobile Racing Club of America (ARCA) since it has been coming to Iowa Speedway during its first year of operation in 2006.
Prairie Meadows’ president believes facilities like Iowa Speedway line directly up with their mission as a community organization.
“Prairie Meadows is proud to partner with the great leadership team at Iowa Speedway in bringing the Prairie Meadows 200 ARCA race to Newton again this year,” said Prairie Meadows President/CEO Gary Palmer. “This partnership allows us to continue to fulfill our mission of supporting tourism and economic development.”
“To have a community leader like Prairie Meadows involved with our speedway, basically since day one, has allowed us to be a better community partner,” says Stan Clement, president of Iowa Speedway. “With their sponsorship, we have been able to create an amazing relationship with ARCA, which brings the fans a great race to watch and provides a huge economic impact on the local economy.”
ARCA, which is celebrating its 60th Anniversary Season, was one of the first sanctioning bodies to race at the Newton motorsports complex.
“The support of a longtime partner is important in motorsports, said Mark Gundrum, vice president of business development and corporate partnerships for ARCA. “We’re happy to see that Prairie Meadows and Iowa Speedway are working together again as ARCA’s 60th Anniversary Season visits Newton.”
