RACING CHAMP HELPS LOCAL AID TO SOLDIERS

Nine-time ARCA series champion race car driver Frank Kimmel has teamed up with his sister, Coldwell Banker Bullard Henry County Realtor Penny Henderson, to send 10 dozen T-shirts to soldiers in Iraq and Afghanistan. Each shirt has Kimmel's autograph as well as a picture of his car.

The shirts are being sent as part of a project through Penny's church, Glen Haven Baptist of McDonough, to send Christmas packages to men and women serving in those war-torn countries during the Christmas season.

Penny's son, 1st Lt. Adam Henderson, is on his second tour in Iraq and will be distributing these packages to soldiers under his command.

Penny and the rest of the Glen Haven family wish to thank all of those who made this project a huge success, especially the Food Depot and Allan Vigil Ford who underwrote a portion of the shipping costs.
