LONG POND, Pa. (June 7, 2024) – Pocono Raceway is bringing the races to Crayola Experience for a colorful, race-themed takeover June 10-16 to celebrate its upcoming NASCAR weekend.
To kick off the week-long festivities of on-the-track creativity, Pocono Raceway’s 2024 Chevrolet Silverado Pace Truck and mascot “Tricky” will be at the Easton-based family attraction Monday from 10 a.m. – 2 p.m. The day will be highlighted by a special guest appearance from 11 a.m. – 1 p.m. by professional racing driver Sage Karam, an Easton, Pa., native who has competed in INDYCAR, NASCAR, IMSA and Rallycross during his career.
