Doodlebugs and Hershey
A History of Hershey Speedway Stadium
Section Title
Presented by Robert Ziemba
Tuesday, October 7 at 6:00pm
If you are a Racing fan, mark your calendar for October 7 and plan to attend a special talk at the Hershey History Center for a very special evening discussing the little known history of Racing at Hershey Stadium Speedway.
Rob Ziemba, a local Racing enthusiast with a NASCAR background, has been studying the Speedway. The Hershey Speedway operated inside the Hershey Park Stadium from 1939 to 1942, in 1967 and 1969, and in 1982 and 1983.
Rob will lead the discussion, speaking on the history of the Speedway, and sharing some fun clips and little known facts throughout his presentation. He will also have his personal collection of Hershey Stadium Speedway memorabilia on display at the museum.
Fans are encouraged to bring any Hershey stadium Speedway memorabilia they may have from their families to share their recollections of seasons past and to reunite for one evening with Racing commonality.
Speedway related apparel is on sale in the HHC Museum's 1729 Shop.
Hershey Speedway coordinates with the Antique Auto fall meet.
