Nemechek to be honored at a school: Joe Nemechek will be honored at the Milford Public Library in Milford, Delaware tomorrow as he kicks off the library’s “Summer Reading 2002” program. Mayor Ronnie Rogers will be on hand to present Nemechek with the key to the city. Nemechek, who will be in town for the Cup and BGN races at Dover International Speedway, first visited the library during race weekend last September. During that visit, he autographed copies of his book “Racin Buddies,” a book written with Peter Roe and Nemechek’s young son John Hunter about traveling the racing circuit. The overwhelming response from the town prompted the return visit. “We are so pleased to have Joe Nemechek visit our library again,” said Director Kay Hudson. “He’ll be here to help kick off our Summer Reading Program themed ‘Join the Winner’s Circle – Read!’ Joe’s visit in September was a great hit with everyone. Milford has adopted him!” The summer reading program is an annual reading incentive that runs throughout the summer months encouraging children of all ages to read. Children reading ten or more books receive special awards including a certificate from Delaware’s Governor Minner. Nemechek will sign autographs tomorrow from 4:00-6:00pm/et at the Milford Public Library located at 11 S.E. Front Street, Milford Delaware. The Cellular One Showcar will also be on location from 3:00-6:00pm.(NEMCO Motorsports)(5-30-2002)
