AMA Pro Racing Rewards Donations To Medical Center With SuperpassAMA Pro Racing press release
AMA Pro Racing today announced an opportunity for American
Motorcyclist Association (AMA) members to receive an all-access
SuperPass, granting entry to every event on the AMA Pro Racing
calendar, in exchange for a $2500 donation to the Asterisk
Mobile Medical Center.
The custom-built Asterisk Mobile Medical Center is used
throughout the THQ AMA Supercross Series and AMA Motocross
Championship events as a quick-response assessment and treatment
facility. The center is fully staffed by medical personnel, and
relies almost exclusively on donations to cover operational
costs.
“Every dollar we raise from AMA members will go directly
towards the operation and maintenance of the Asterisk Mobile
Medical Center,” AMA Pro Racing Director of Safety and Logistics
Hugh Fleming said. “Our goal is to not only help maintain the
high level of medical treatment afforded by the center, but also
to reward those AMA members who make a donation with special
VIP-type access at the races.”
“This is a great way for racing fans or companies to get an
inside look at all forms of AMA Pro Racing events and at the
same time help the Asterisk Mobile Medical Center with its
mission to provide on-site medical care for the racing
community”, said Dr. John Bodnar, Director for the Medical
Center and trackside physician for the Supercross and Motocross
Series.
In addition to supporting safety efforts in racing, AMA
members who make a $2500 donation to the Asterisk Mobile Medical
Center will receive an AMA Pro Racing SuperPass, good for entry
to over 70 AMA Pro Racing events nationally. This includes race
and pit access to the THQ AMA Supercross Series, AMA Motocross
Championship, AMA Superbike Championship, AMA Supermoto
Championship and AMA Flat Track Championship. Other benefits
include a plaque and recognition by AMA Pro Racing on its
website.
For further information on the Asterisk Mobile Medical Center
or to make a donation, call Hugh Fleming c/o AMA Pro Racing at
(614) 856-1900 extension 1281, or email hfleming@amaproracing.com.
