Members of the armed forces were honored at Saturday’s Colonial Cup with all servicemen and women receiving special recognition as part of “Military Appreciation Day” at the track. The Carolina Cup Racing Association (CCRA), which organizes race day activities, offered discounted tickets to members of the military and held several pre-race events as a “salute to the military.” In an effort to memorialize service to the country, the CCRA presented award-winning broadcast journalist Rita Cosby with the inaugural Major General Baron de Kalb Service Award.
