Thunderhill Raceway introduces new Media Center

KYLE, TX (May 8, 2008) – Media representatives are invited to check out their new “home” – a separate Media Center in the VIP suite area – at Thunderhill Raceway (Kyle, TX).

As part of the relocation efforts in the VIP suite area, the Thunderhill Raceway staff has moved its media operations from the downstairs Press Box to an exclusive area on the second floor.

The Press Box area will continue to be the headquarters for race sponsor activities during the 2008 racing season.

“We know it has been an awkward, crowded situation for our media supporters in the past,” said Mary Ann Naumann, Owner/Promoter of Thunderhill Raceway. “They were sharing the Press Box with the announcer, several race sponsors and special guests. We want to make certain the media folks get a nice, comfortable seat by the window to watch and report the races. We also hope this separate Media Center will let them know how much we value their support.”

Media representatives are invited to check out the Media Center during this Saturday’s (May 10) races at Thunderhill Raceway, starting with the opening ceremonies at 7:00 pm.

During the first phase of the relocation process, the announcer’s area and the associated audio equipment were moved to a suite on the second floor. A separate area was also created for the scoring staff, the electronic scoring equipment and the race control staff.

The final phase of VIP area redesign will be the addition of a suite for private birthday parties at the track – for both the young and “older” fans.

Thunderhill Raceway is a 3/8-mile, asphalt D-shaped oval track that’s located at 24801 IH-35, just outside of San Marcos, TX (Exit #210 - Yarrington Road). The grandstand gates will open at 4:00 pm on Saturday.
