Our next meeting is on January 7 at Colony Cottage Recreation Center, going green at 7 p.m.

Our guest speaker is the legendary short-track stock car racer in the Northeast, “Dynamite” Dave Dion. His racing accomplishments were part of a family affair as his brothers Paul, Roger and Donald were all integral parts to the Dion Brothers Racing team.

Racing primarily in Late Models, Dave became a dominant force at tracks like Thunder Road, Catamount Stadium and across New England, piling up wins and championships.

Dion took his talents to the NASCAR Busch North Series, winning 13 races over 20 seasons (1987-2006). Dion won the 1996 Busch North Series Championship at age 52. His last win on the series came at Oxford Plains Speedway in 2005 at the age of 61. He won the Oxford 250 three different times in three different decades (1975, 1985, 1992), becoming the event’s first 3-time winner. He considers this and his Busch North title his greatest accomplishments in racing.
