| Caught on camera! This choice day of fun and fundraising for the R.O.C.c.K. Children's Choir in 2006 at the Sharon Speedway in Hartford, Ohio was made possible with the help of racetrack co-owner and operator, Kate Blaney and her husband Lou. Kate is on the above far left, standing next to Charlotte Labuda, the choir's director and choreographer.
The choir was also present to cheer on one of their favorite sponsors --- driver and stock car owner Stan Woomer. |

| At least once during the summer racing season at the track, the Choir appears to perform and raise money for cancer research and support programs. On Father's Day weekend in 2007, the choir members painted small rocks with their T-shirt colors and wrote "Dad ROCcKS." The money raised from the sale of the rocks was donated to the Victory Junction Gang Camp. The Choir is again caught on camera, this time as they sang the National Anthem in 2007 and 2008 at the beginning of the races. |
