Going to the Glen this weekend?

Tuesday, August 5th, 2008

I hope you have your camping arrangements set because camping sites during the NASCAR weekend at The Glen have been a hot ticket at Watkins Glen International for over 20 years, and this season is no different.

Reserved camping sites during this weekend’s NASCAR at The Glen weekend are SOLD OUT! This is the earliest date that these popular locations have been sold out at The Glen in ten years. General camping passes during the race weekend are still available.

 For more information, please contact the Watkins Glen International ticket office at 866-461-RACE, or log on to the official website at www.TheGlen.com.

The historic road course occupies close to 2000 acres of land and offers a variety of weekend camping opportunities during race weekends including NASCAR in August and the IndyCar Series in July. Reserved trackside camping can be enjoyed from both the infield and the outside of the track and historically sells out first followed by non-trackside campsites and general camping areas. Glen fans interested in general camping, where the early bird gets the worm - or - the best location when they arrive race week, should call now to ensure a camping space for the NASCAR weekend.

General camping during the NASCAR weekend can be enjoyed along the “Boot” through Gate 7 as well as outside the backstretch by Gate 1. General camping during the Watkins Glen Grand Prix weekend is also available in the infield.

Enjoy the racing!

Bloggingly yours,
