Bear Ridge Speedway "the fastest dirt track in Vermont" promoters/owners C.V. “Butch” Elms and April May Preston-Elms are excited to announce a new sponsor for the weekly racing. 95.3/107.1 The Wolf along with Heath Cole have been a longtime supporter of the Ridge sponsoring the annual Memorial Day remembrance of lost friends race night. When the weekly racing series sponsorship opened Heath and Jim Whedon of Binnie Media the parent company were eager to jump on board.
Having worked with Heath for over twenty years now, both at the Wolf and other stations before that, we are really pleased that we were able to offer Binnie Media an opportunity to enhance their involvement with us. This partnership affords both of us an opportunity to expand our respective footprint in Vermont and New Hampshire, and we look forward to a long-standing relationship with the team at 95.3/107.1 The Wolf said Preston-Elms.
C.V. “Butch” Elms with wife April May Preston-Elms continue to host the best short track dirt racing in Vermont, making this one of the few tracks in the United States that has for 58 consecutive years always been owned or operated by the same family.
