Snap-on Tools' VP Sales & Marketing Brian Ross, looks forward to the Team joining the festivities this weekend. "We are very excited to have our driver Jason Hathaway and Team Crew Chief Giulio Montanari a part of our event this year. They have been great ambassadors of the Snap-on Tools' brand and have had a very successful season. They will be on hand to open the Snap-on Tool Fair on Saturday night with the race car and Jason and Giulio will be our honorary Grand Marshalls for the event. It will be a thrill for all of our franchisees and suppliers alike to get along side a true NASCAR Canadian Tire Series racecar."
The weekend's activities will include a pit box display with all of the Team's Snap-on pit equipment set up to look like a typical day at the races for the Snap-on Tools team. The Team will also host "The Snap-on Tools Pit Stop Challenge" amongst the attendees . The Challenge will exemplify the team work necessary for not only a great pit stop on race day to get Jason in and out of the pits quickly, but also the Team work that creates a successful business relationship within the Snap-on Tools Corporation.
Before the start of the Snap on Tools event the Team will make a stop to visit with long time Team partner Super 8 Motels at the Calgary Super 8 Shawnessy property in southeast Calgary on Friday at 3pm. The car and team transporter along with Jason and Giulio will be on hand to spend some time with the employees and staff and invited local businesses. The Super 8 group will get the chance to meet Jason and Giulio and look over the 500 + horsepower racing machine that Jason pilots each weekend with the familiar bright red, yellow and black Super 8 Motels colours.
"The Super 8 Calgary Shawnessy is excited to welcome Jason and the Team 3 Red/EHR Team to Calgary this week. We are very proud of our relationship with the Team and look forward to our event on Friday afternoon. We are pleased to be their host hotel for the weekend's events and look forward to seeing the car and the Team." said Super 8 Shawnessy General Manager Ed Belanger.
