On May 1st, Holland Speedway management, officials, and drivers prepared a meal for the families staying at the Ronald McDonald House in Buffalo. Holland’s Fajita Night was successful and seeing the faces of the families eating was such a rewarding experience. “We are so lucky to have a charity like Ronald McDonald House here in Western New York” commented General Manager Tim Bennett. “We are thankful for the fans, sponsors, and officials who help by donating food and their time for such a great cause” Bennett added.
