As part of ongoing efforts to improve America’s National Park of Speed, Road America installed 15 benches over the off-season around the 640-acre expansive property for fans to enjoy.
However, each bench is not just an average place to sit. Instead, each bench carries a lasting message. Lisa Weinberger, the wife of renowned automotive enthusiast, racer, and entrepreneur John Weinberger, who died last September, is offering a series of scholarships to benefit students who aspire to follow in his footsteps. The John Weinberger Drive to Care Legacy Scholarships — offered in partnership with TechForce Foundation, will administer the scholarships, with awards of up to $10,000 across four automotive career disciplines: Automotive Engineering; Vintage Automotive Restoration; Automotive Dealership Management, Marketing, and Communications; and Automotive Technician.
The application deadline is April 30.
