Jimmy Spencer Fifth Annual Charity Golf Tournament
NASCAR driver Jimmy Spencer will hold his fifth annual charity golf tournament on Thursday, July 25. The charity event will be held at the prestigious Edgewood in the Pines Golf Course in Drums, Pennsylvania, which is located twenty minutes from the Pocono Raceway. The NASCAR Winston Cup Series visits Pocono that same week.
Spencer’s event will benefit Camp Victory, a camping facility for chronically ill children and the EOS Therapeutic Riding Center, where handicap children enjoy therapy by riding horses. Proceeds from the event also help support the D.A.R.E. program for kids, Children’s Library and other programs that benefit children in the community.
Spencer will tee-up the ball with other Winston Cup drivers along with television and radio celebrities from Fox, NBC and MRN radio. In last year’s event, drivers such as Mike Skinner, Rick Mast and Robert Pressley were in attendance. Spencer’s golf tournament has raised over $225,000.
“This charity event is one of the most important and gratifying things I do all year,” said Jimmy Spencer. “Winning a Winston Cup race or finishing in the top-5 is pretty special, but it does not compare with the feeling you get when you see those kids riding horses and knowing that this kind of therapy may help them walk someday, or the chronically ill kids enjoying a camping trip.”
“Every year that I’ve held this golf tournament, I go into it wanting more than the previous year. It’s like racing, you’re never satisfied unless you win. If we can generate a $100,000 this year, that would be a huge win for my kids, but we need corporate support and donations to make that happen.”

I got this from Jimmy's website. I love finding things like this. Those drivers that take the time to help out kids in need get a big thumbs up from me. I have been hard on Spencer (expect some more in the future) but I know deep and I mean way deep down he can be a good guy. Of course De Wrangler 2 already knew this being the club president and all! hehehe
