May 6, 2014 THOROLD, ONTARIO – Leading into when the first Brian’s Sports Cards and Collectibles Fan of the Night pick this Saturday Night … Race Fans will surely want to take in the Hartzel Road St. Catharines’ Grand Opening May 10th from 10 to 4.
For years, Brian’s Tire Repair has held a fund-raising and awareness event in support of Team Racing for a Cure and their efforts in the annual Relay for Life with a BBQ and an impressive display of Team Brian’s Race Cars on display. In conjunction with the Grand Opening of Brian Simms’ new business – for a minimum donation of $10.00 – supporters will receive a draw ticket on some great memorabilia.
“Since 1998 Racing for a Cure has been part of the Relay for Life,” said (Merrittville Speedway GM) Erica Bicknell-Jones, ” the event itself is 12 hours but year in and year out they invest so many more hours which makes them one of the best. What a better way to spend what is now our Season Opener … seeing some race cars up close … looking through all the collectibles at Brian’s and supporting a great cause!”
