July 16th has been declared Armed Forces Day at Ukiah Speedway. Anderson Logging Company and Ukiah Speedway have joined forces to honor members of all branches of the Armed Forces and First Responders with a free night of racing with valid ID. Grandstand entry for spectators five and up will be just $5.

It will be an exciting night of racing with the Taco Bell Bombers, Jammers, Jalopies, PCS Late Models, and Pro 4 Modifieds. An amazing night of racing with two professional divisions on one track for just $5! The gates will open at 3:30pm, qualifying starts at 5PM.

Racing Promoter David Furia states, “Every person who enjoys the freedoms that we have in this country owes a debt to the men and women who have served in our Nation’s Military. With the help of Anderson Logging Company, we are pleased to pay a tribute to the ones who fought for our freedom.” Furia adds “We are also honored to recognize those who keep put their lives on the line every day protecting us. We appreciate the service of our police, firefighters and emergency personnel. They support our community every day and we owe them a debt of gratitude. We are glad we can have a night of recognition for the Military and First Responders sacrifice and dedication. We are offering reduced grandstand entry in hopes that the fans join us in recognizing those who defend our freedom and keep us safe.”

This night of racing will also feature special guest announcer Justin Briggs. Since he retired from announcing at Ukiah and Lakeport Speedways, Justin has been living in Oregon. He is traveling to Ukiah Speedway this weekend just to announce the races. Justin’s visit is sponsored by Discovery Inn Ukiah.

The Ukiah Speedway will be alive with patriotism and racing action Saturday July 16th. For more information, visit ukiahspeedway.com and find Ukiah Speedway on Facebook.
