Crusaders hit the track with NASCAR


July 7,8 & 9 mark the first ever NASCAR series races at the Kentucky Motor Speedway and the Capital Women's Soccer team was there!  Groups of players, parents and friends went down to the speedway and helped serve as tour guides in order to help raise money for the program.  Their participation covered the Truck race on Thursday evening, the Nationwide series race on Friday evening and the 117,000 seat sell out NASCAR race on Saturday evening.  Overall it was a great event for our team and helped us take one more step towards success in 2011.
