How exciting it was to travel to work!!!�� People are everywhere and the town is really a buzz with everyone in town for the race.� I was afraid the travel situation would be really difficult but it was not nearly as bad as I expected.� I cruised right into the speedway and was only slightly held up about 3 blocks from the track.� My assignment for the first day at Lowe’s was to work as an “usher”.� When people arrived at the Speedway Club I would direct them to their destination, whether they were there for dinner, shopping, drinks and of course to their seats.� The Speedway Club has over 4500 members who pay at a minimum $ 2700.00 pp to belong.� That is just the membership; they then have to pay for their tickets.� They have access to some of the best seating available.� The club seating is right on the front stretch, enclosed, air conditioned and has very nice cushioned stadium seating.� The day got off to a slow start as we had to be at work at 11:00 and guest really did not start coming until about 3:00.� Gave me a good chance to chat with some of the other works, I had a great group of people I was working with.� Day One finally ended at 11:30.� I drove directly home and went straight to bed – I was beat!
