Victory Junction was founded by NASCAR driver Kyle Petty and his wife, Pattie, in memory of their son, Adam, who was killed in a NASCAR racing accident in 2000.  The camp is designed to enrich the lives of children with chronic illnesses by creating experiences that are exciting, fun, physically safe and medically sound.

The Carolinas Cup event, which this year was won by the North Carolina contingent, has generated more than $222,000 for Victory Junction since its inception.

“We’re so thankful to the participants from these two great states, who again generously supported this charity event during a very difficult economic time, said Robin Kolvek, sales manager for CUNA Mutual’s South Region.  “We were also gratified that Kyle Petty could attend this year’s event.”
