Quartermile Charities, which owns and operates the track side apparel trailer for Jeg's Mail Order, will donate the proceeds from their sales at the NHRA Mopar Mile-High Nationals to Race to Read.

"We have been involved with the Bandimere family Race to Read program for a numbers of years. In the past we have donated media kits to give young readers something unique and informative to get excited about reading. Having the proceeds from the sales this weekend in Denver from our Quartermile Charities group will further help this great cause," explained Troy Coughlin.

Troy will be accompanied by his daughter Meghan (13) and his son Troy Jr (11) when the check is presented to the Bandimere family in the pre race activities on Sunday at Bandimere Speedway.
