The Spokesman-Review

Racing time slots are still available for the Junior Achievement of the Inland Northwest’s sixth annual Road Rally Event set for 11 a.m. to 7 p.m. Tuesday at FastKart Indoor Speedway, 1224 E. Front Ave.

Teams of four drivers made up of individuals from various Spokane businesses will compete for the best driving time and vie for the Road Rally trophy while raising money to support Junior Achievement programs in local schools.

Hollister-Stier Laboratories will be defending its title as 2006 Road Rally Champions.

All proceeds will go to sustaining Junior Achievement of the Inland Northwest programs that during the 2005-06 school year reached more than 9,200 students.

For more information about the Road Rally, contact Janet Banaugh or Suzie Seefried at the Junior Achievement office at 624-7114, or visit the Web site at www.spokane.ja.org.
