Angels of Awareness is a local grass roots foundation dedicated to helping women with ovarian cancer. Angels of Awareness was founded by Andrea Martinez, a Western New York native and its board members to promote research and advocacy in women’s health care specifically ovarian cancer. The mission is to raise funds for continued research for early diagnosis, community awareness and education and survivorship programs and support groups (for women going through it and for their families.) Andrea has assistance with Angels of Awareness from WNY Ovarian Cancer Project, CCS Foundation and the Women’s Health Center of Kaleida Heath.

Round one of Crash-A-Rama was on Saturday June 1st and it was Matthew Serafin being declared the winner of the Enduro. 2013 Figure 8 Track Champion Jason Eck and his teammates won the Roller Derby while Clint Riegle won both the Limousine Demolition Derby and the School Bus Figure 8 race. Hornet driver Kenny Hejna won the Flag Pole Race while Dustin Wierzba won the popular Boat-Trailer Race. Tyler Haniszewski won the Front-Wheeled Demolition Derby.

The Budweiser 100 presented by Paul Graff Trucking and  NOCO Express Shops was scheduled to be raced last Saturday September 7 but Mother Nature forced the postponement of this event until the 2014 racing season. “After much consideration and trying to work with the other tracks in the region with their ending events, we have decided that the rain date for the Bud 100 will be in 2014” stated Holland General Manager Tim Bennett. “With Crash-A-Rama taking place this Saturday, the US Open at Elegant Builders Raceway Park (Lancaster) next weekend, the Fall Brawl at Shangri-La II Motor Speedway the week after that and the Fall Shootout at Wyoming County International the first weekend in October, it is not feasible to get the show in” Bennett added.
