New raceway hosts race day and special ceremony

The new Infinity Raceway in Mancelona opened for snowmobile drag races on Saturday, but also for a special ceremony to honor breast cancer survivors and those who lost their battle to the disease.

The raceway was lined with pink balloons as spectators and racers lined the track for the pre-race ceremony. The Antrim County High Tea for Breast Cancer coordinated the ceremony and organizers say Antrim County has the highest rate of breast cancer in the state.

That's why they work to support awareness and prevention programs whenever and wherever possible.
