Jeffrey Earnhardt and Talladega Superspeedway to Help Teach Fire Safety

TALLADEGA, Ala. - Talladega Superspeedway is excited to team up with Jeffrey Earnhardt to educate children about the value of Fire Safety.  Local schools are getting involved with Fire Safety Month during October to help ensure children know what to do in the case of a fire. 

“Having the opportunity to be involved in October’s Fire Safety Month gives Talladega Superspeedway a wonderful chance to educate children in our local schools about the significance of fire safety and what precautionary measures can be taken to ensure they are safe in their homes,” said Talladega Superspeedway Chairman Grant Lynch.  “Jeffrey Earnhardt coming to Talladega to assist with this effort is not only exciting for the track but also for the children who will meet him.”

 Earnhardt will be in town from October 1^st through the 15^th to visit schools and teach children the importance of fire safety and prevention with the help of his sponsor FW1 Fire Stop.  The 4^th generation Earnhardt driver is currently racing in the NASCAR Camping World Truck Series on the Rick Ware Racing team.  Working with the local schools is just one way of giving back to the community and making sure children remain safe.
