GREAT THINGS ARE HAPPENING!
TRG Motorsports has joined with the National Lieomyosarcoma Foundation
(NLMSF) to raise awareness about Leiomyosarcoma!
In
an effort to support research into this very rare cancer, TRG has donated sponsorship advertising space on David Gilliland's
#71 racecar for the Sprint Cup Series race in Pocono, Pennsylvania, on August 2nd at 1pm. Garage passes for the race
were
also made available for?two LMS representatives,
one a survivor and the other a NLMSF Board member who lost her husband to LMS,
as well as transportation and accommodations.
The abundant generosity of this motorsports team
has been spearheaded by Mike Brown, General Manager of TRG, and
Slugger Labbe, Gilliland's crew chief.
?
LMS,
along with "Sarcoma, The Forgotten Cancer" will have logos on the car and should be a topic of interest with MRN
and PRN racing network interviews. "Slay the Dragon" wrist bands will be available for the team and we are
hoping to have T-shirts
available for all the
folks that have stepped up to the challenge of finding a cure for Leiomyosarcoma!
Be sure to cheer for TRG Motorsports and David Gilliland on Sunday, August 2nd!
Our thanks go out to Amy Elliott for being such a great coordinator
(as well as a LMS survivor) for her great efforts in giving all of those
of us touched by LMS the opportunity to get nationwide coverage through NASCAR! This is truly a great
opportunity for our LMS community
to educate the
world through this race.
We also want to thank
Mike Brown and Slugger Labbe for supporting our foundation through the generous use of advertising space on
David Gilliland's car - it is truly an opportunity that we could never
afford without this donation.
