  • NASCAR Drivers Help Assemble Care Packages For Military: Some seven hours before Saturday night’s Sharpie 500, NASCAR drivers #07-Casey Mears and #31-Jeff Burton weren’t thinking about how they would travel the fine line between making their living and risking their lives. Rather, Mears and Burton were inside a bustling Jack Daniel’s tent some 500 yards outside the Bristol Motor Speedway, helping more than 100 volunteers pack 10,000 huge plastic bags of supplies – lotion, tissue, trail mix, shaving razors, puzzle books, cotton swabs, camouflage pouches, candy, raisins, beef jerky, packets of powdered orange drink and more – bound for American military troops serving overseas. In the hours before the Sharpie 500, Mears and Burton weren’t obsessing over how to win a race and lift their arms in victory. Rather, they were making a sacrifice – of time, attention and hands – to lift the morale of those far away, bearing arms in combat. “It means something to me to do this, because I know how much getting these means to those soldiers,” Mears said, stuffing items, one after another, into bags that kept steadily coming his way. Added Burton: “Spending some time doing this doesn’t compare to the work those troops are putting in over there. So, I don’t feel like this is a sacrifice for me at all. If it is one, I’m happy to make it.”(Bristol Herald Courier)(8-23-2009)
