"Hang with Herman" at select USMTS events

Kenny Wallace fans can “Hang with Herman” at select O’Reilly USMTS National Tour events; Proceeds to benefit Victory Junction Gang Camp

SPIRIT LAKE, Iowa — RLD Marketing and Night of Victory are happy to announce that NASCAR driver Kenny Wallace will be participating in five special evenings of “Hang with Herman” while he travels with the O’Reilly USMTS National Tour.

“Hang with Herman” is a special “meet and greet” opportunity at the following dates and tracks on the O’Reilly USMTS National Tour:

Wednesday, June 18 … Park Jefferson Speedway, Jefferson, S.D.
Wednesday, June 25 … Huset’s Speedway, Brandon, S.D.
Wednesday, July 23 … Clay County Speedway, Spencer, Iowa
Tuesday, July 29 … Cresco Speedway, Cresco, Iowa
Wednesday, July 30 … Southern Iowa Speedway, Oskaloosa, Iowa

The evening is an opportunity to meet with NASCAR fan favorite Kenny Wallace, grab an autograph, get a photo taken, ask Kenny some questions, learn about Night of Victory and talk about racing!

“I am very excited about partnering with Night of Victory,” said Wallace, winner of three Most Popular Driver Awards. “I’ve had the opportunity to work with Night of Victory before and they really put together exciting events that benefit a very deserving cause. I hope the fans get excited about coming out to the dirt track early to have some fun hanging out with us before the races.”

The Night of Victory will be held on Sept. 17 at the Deer Creek Speedway in Spring Valley, Minn., to benefit the Victory Junction Gang Camp. A prelude to the 10th Annual Featherlite Fall Jamboree, the event will be a day-long opportunity to reach fans in the Midwest. Throughout the day, the general public will be able to partake in the festivities at the track: they can meet NASCAR team members, see show cars, visit souvenir trailers, purchase merchandise and much more!

The evening will culminate with an autograph session with the NASCAR drivers and personalities, a “match race” with the NASCAR drivers, a catered meal and an auction with over 150 items of racing memorabilia to benefit the Victory Junction Gang Camp.

NASCAR Sprint Cup drivers will be on hand for autographs and photo opportunities.

“While we are expecting 500-700 people to be in attendance for the festivities, that number could easily be in the thousands for the race-fest portion of the day,” said Rachel Dean of RLD Marketing. “We’re excited to have Kenny promoting Night of Victory throughout the summer at the “Hang with Herman” events, and we’re also excited about having our logo on his modified.

“Kenny is a wonderful spokesperson and we’re more than thrilled having him promote our fundraiser for the Victory Junction Gang Camp.”

“Hang with Herman” tickets are $30 per person. Each ticket includes your ticket to the “meet and greet” with Kenny Wallace, your ticket to that evening’s O’Reilly USMTS National Tour race, a great meal and the opportunity to win some great prizes!
