WISCASSET

In response to all the offers to help get Wiscasset Speedway back into shape, a community cleanup day is scheduled for Sunday, Sept. 16, from 9 a.m. to 4 p.m.

There will be plenty of projects, such as trimming and raking grass, picking up tires and debris, cleaning buildings, painting trim or repairing the bleachers. Bring your gloves, favorite tools and meet new friends or visit old friends while working on a project that interests you.

Among the companies offering their services are Central Maine Disposal of Fairfield, which specializes in commercial and industrial waste. The company is providing a large container for the collection and removal of waste and debris. BDS Waste Removal of Corinna, which specializes in tire recycling, will collect and remove the tires during the week following the cleanup day. Jordan Lumber and Jordan Excavation will serve hot dogs, drinks and chips free of charge while supplies last.

Starting at 3 p.m., there will be an informational meeting regarding plans for a race in mid-October. Plans include a format similar to the race held last fall, with trophies going to the top three of every class.

A suggestion box will be available for anyone wishing to express their thoughts and ideas for the 2013 season.

Wiscasset Speedway expresses appreciation for everyone’s help, whether they stay all day or for an hour. For more information, call 265- 2249 or email wiscassetspeedway@gmail.com.
