CONCORD, N.C. -- Race fans will have an opportunity to support the environment, their favorite drivers, as well as Speedway Children's Charities for two weekends of racing at the historic Lowe's Motor Speedway this month.

Partnering with Lowe's Motor Speedway and Bealer Distributing, the local Anheuser-Busch wholesaler, Anheuser-Busch Recycling Corporation (A-BRC) is supplying more than 225 recycling containers in the concourse and select suite areas. In addition, campers at Fleetwood and Country Crock campgrounds will receive A-BRC blue recycling bags as they enter those facilities and will be encouraged to leave their recyclables at their camp sites for pickup. A Budweiser Recycling Team will reward those campers who "get caught recycling" with Anheuser-Busch branded items, including T-shirts and can coolies.

The recycling program will be in place for both race weekends during May at the 1.5-mile superspeedway, beginning May 16 and 17 for the NASCAR Sprint All-Star Race, then returning from May 22-25 for the Coca-Cola 600.

All proceeds from the Anheuser-Busch recycling program will be given to Speedway Children's Charities (SCC), which provides funding for hundreds of non-profit organizations throughout the nation that meet the direct needs of children.

Thanks to the generosity of many supporters, the SCC Charlotte chapter distributed in excess of $700,000 to 64 local charities at its annual grant ceremony in December 2007.
