"With the success of the last two year's Racing Experience, we are excited to bring the tour to CBL malls again this year," said Stephen Lebovitz, president of CBL & Associates Properties, Inc. "Last year's tour attracted an estimated attendance of more than 330,000 people, with over 45,000 racing fans participating in the event and over 7 million brand impressions were delivered by the tour. The Coca-Cola Racing Experience has proven to be a strong consumer draw for our malls, benefiting mall retailers and eateries."

Shoppers have the opportunity to help send a child to camp by picking up donation envelopes in the mall or donating on-line to www.victoryjunction.org. "Last year CBL raised over $30,000 for Victory Junction Gang Camp, which is just a start in our endeavor to utilize the centers in gaining exposure for a worthwhile cause," said Barb Faucette, Vice President of Mall Marketing.
