The Mid-Ohio School is kicking off a 15th anniversary celebration, as the season commences with its Honda Teen Defensive Driving Program this weekend.

The Mid-Ohio School, the comprehensive driving and riding instruction company operated by TrueSports, Inc. and based at Mid-Ohio Sports Car Course, is marking the occasion by offering a 15% enrollment discount through April 30 on 15 select course dates. Customers can also take advantage of the anniversary by teaming up with a friend or family member for a defensive driving, high performance driving or racing course. When any course is purchased at regular price, any subsequent course enrollment for the same date will be offered at 15% off.

"Throughout our 15th Anniversary season, we will be reminded of the original vision of The Mid-Ohio School: to offer entertaining, exciting and innovative programs in a safe environment, while also maximizing driving time and developing the skills of participants through professional instruction," said Steve Bidlack, Director of The Mid-Ohio School. We're proud to be an industry leader and look forward to a successful 2008 and beyond."
