Five-Day Camps Emphasize Speed and Safety
Pole Position Raceway, America's leading chain of state-of-the-art, indoor motorsports entertainment facilities – with the fastest electric karts on the east coast – has opened registration for its youth summer racing camps at its indoor facility at Destiny USA in Syracuse, NY,
Offering an authentic, exhilarating and safe driving experience on its quarter-mile race track, the weekly summer racing camps at Pole Position Raceway are filled with non-stop action and fun. The karts at Pole Position Raceway feature the latest in high-performance, all-electric, emission-free indoor karts capable of speeds of 45 MPH. Since the karts use electric technology, there are no fumes, providing a clean and green experience.
"We are excited to open enrollment for the 2015 season of our youth summer racing camp," said Karen-Davis Farage, president and co-owner of the Pole Position Raceway venues in the East. "Camp at Pole Position Raceway is the perfect activity for young racers with the need for speed, but also for parents looking for guaranteed fun and action for the week. While the kids are engaged and keeping cool inside, adults can rest easy knowing they are having fun but also learning the basics for safe driving."
The camp is open to Juniors, ages 8-12 and Youth, ages 13-17 during the following sessions:
Junior Summer Racing Camp (Must be 48" – 58" tall)
July 6 - 10
July 20 - 24
Youth Summer Racing Camp (Must be 58" +)
July 13 - 17
July 27 – 31
The five-day camps are led by a Pole Position Raceway instructor and are designed to emphasize speed and skill. Sessions focus on racing history and strategy including safe driving techniques, track awareness, brake and throttle points, acceleration, passing and more. The final day tests each camper's knowledge as they compete in a Championship Race Event followed by an awards ceremony. No prior karting experience necessary.
Sessions are held from 11am – 4pm, Monday through Friday, where all participants receive a Pole Position Raceway prize pack, an "action" photograph and a certificate of completion. The full week registration fee is $375 and includes lunch in party spaces, beverage and game tokens to use at its arcade each day. Graduated Campers also become Honorary Members.
Space in each age group is limited. To register for the 2015 Summer Racing Camp click here.
