While I know some of you may be aware of this, others of you may not. The racetrack at the Fairgrounds is at a high risk of being demolished at the end of this season. The lease ends in 2008, and has not been renewed...and a consultation firm was hired to discuss future uses of the land the speedway currently occupies.
The Fairgrounds have been a part of my life since I was 8 years old, a part of Michelle and My ministry for the past 4 years. And while that does not seem like that long ago, the racetrack has been a fixture in Nashville since well before I was welcomed into this world! I felt my call to ministry sitting in the grandstands of that sacred speedway, and God’s word is going forth in the lives of many because of that track.
Families have come together at that facility. Legacies have been made at that facility. Precious moments of auto racing history has been wrote at that facility. To tear it down would be to tear down a special place in the lives of countless people.
I ask that you all take a moment to sign this ‘save the speedway’ petition. Save Nashville Speedway Petition I know it may not mean much to you...but to those that it does mean something to, it means everything.
