What's Happening in Indy Wednesday..

How in the world did we get to the end of May already?  I am not sure where it went. Usually, May seems like a SUPER long month in Indy  to me because the entire month is dedicated to the Indy 500 and all of the events leading up to THE RACE. Believe it or not, I have never been to the Indy 500. It's strange, but looking back, I don't remember hearing a lot about it this year. Do you attend the race?

Anyway, here are a few things to do this weekend - RACE FAN or NOT.

Ever wonder how cool it would be to take a lap around the legendary Indianapolis Motor Speedway? Then rev up your engines for the American Family Insurance 500 Festival Community Day and you can do just that! Experience this unique opportunity of taking a lap around the track in your own car before the real race cars hit the track just four days later—at speeds of more than 200 mph!
