Our recent project with Lunenburg County Schools proved to be a great learning experience for everyone involved. We at WSVS are extremely gracious for the help provided by Lunenburg County Schools, their students and teachers.
We would especially like to thank Marie Gee and Meri Page Spencer for their invaluable help with this project.
Also a big thanks to Sierra Hull and Highway 111 for participating in this wonderful program for the students of Lunenburg County!
We are very fortunate to have a few moments with Mr. Doug Fritz. Doug was gracious enough to sit down with us and discuss Richmond International Raceway’s effect on the community and their contribution to community efforts. Through programs like RIR Cares and their involvement in community efforts such as Meals On Wheels, RIR has worked to develop the local community on daily basis.
Please stay tuned for more updates on the upcoming events at Richmond International Raceway.
