Lee’s Caf-to be featured on the #3 at CMS:

A logo from Lee’s Caf-will be featured on a race car during a NASCAR race on May 29. Lee’s East Rowan Caf�, at 203 W. Main St., Rockwell, NC, won a General Mills drawing to feature their logo on the upper quarter panel of the #3 race car driven by Austin Dillon during the Coca-Cola 600 race in Charlotte. The ‘Lee’ of Lee’s Caf-was Sarah Bickish’s brother. Bickish said she got involved in the business to help her brother in 2012 and took over in 2013 when he passed away from cancer. Bickish greets many of her customers by name and prides herself on offering fresh, homemade food, like the hand-cut pork loin, charbroiled, flatiron Black Angus steak, potato salad and baked spaghetti. Bickish said Lee’s Caf-usually wins something at the show every year. General Mills sponsored a drawing that offered a ‘VIP NASCAR Experience,’ with three prize packages available to the 350 restaurants at the show. When the final prizes were being announced, Bickish said Paul Hager, the restaurant’s manager who was also at the show, said he realized the Caf-had not won anything all day. Lee’s Caf-ended up winning the grand prize package. The value of the package is more than $210,000. Along with Lee Caf�’s logo on both sides of the car, the package also includes pre-race passes, all-access passes, a meet and greet with Austin Dillon and the pit crew, pictures with Dillon and the car, VIP clubhouse seats, a 2-night hotel stay, a hospitality suite and a track tour. All transportation is provided and they will also receive food and beverage vouchers. The Lee Caf�’s logo will be against a red background with the restaurant’s name printed in white. The upper corners of the logo will each feature a black stallion.(Salisbury Post), see images of the car on the #3 Team Schemes page
