THUNDER ROAD NAMES CASELLA MOTHERS DAY CONTEST WINNERS

For Immediate Release                                    TR-051107-1

    BARRE, VT Eight lucky moms will serve as honorary officials at the Casella Waste Management Mothers Day
Extravaganza at Barres Thunder Road on Sunday, May 13.  Children of all ages entered their mothers names into
the Casella Mothers Officials For a Day contest to nominate their mom as a potential official for a real stock
car racing event at the Nations Site of Excitement.
    Erin Delphia of Duxbury, VT will take over Thunder Road President Tom Curleys job as Race Director. 
Delphia, wife of NAPA Tiger Sportsman competitor Brian Delphia, was entered into the contest by her daughter
Chelsea.
    We all know how she likes to be in charge of things, explained Chelsea, 13.  She is not afraid to tell
people what to do but in a nice way, of course.  I know my mom would be good at this, I have a lot of confidence
in her.
    Kim Whitcomb of Elmore, wife of Power Shift Online Junkyard Warrior stalwart David Whitcomb, will be the
honorary Director of Competition, and will oversee the entire pit area and technical inspection.
    Sharing duties with Chief Starter Mike Wilder on the flagstand will be Darlene Avery, Wendy Moody, and Kim
Hamlin.  Sue Tillotson and Karen Bushey will lead the field under the direction of Pace Car Driver Bob Bigelow. 
Busheys son, Sportsman competitor Craig Bushey, may be able to advise his mother ahead of time Craig held the
pace car job at Plattsburgh, NYs Airborne Speedway several years ago.
    Donna Burnham, mother of former Allen Lumber Street Stock racer Wicked Wanda Burnham, will oversee
registration at the pit gate for the second straight year.
    Donna excelled at her job last year, said Thunder Road Administrator Tina Gallison.  We ought to hire
her full-time!
    The winning moms will be put to the test on Sunday, May 13 at the Casella Waste Management Mothers Day
Extravaganza.  On tap is a 100-lap event for the NAPA Tiger Sportsman division, and a special Mothers Only
race.  Green flag racing action is scheduled to begin at 2:00pm.  For more information, call (802) 244-6963 or
