The Mount Airy News www.mtairynews.com Printed on recycled newspaper Friday, June 11, 2010 City eyeing LAST DAY OF SCHOOL hike in fees TOM JOYCE STAFF REPORTER Circuses, telegraph offices and boxing matches aren’t normal sights in Mount Airy these days, yet the city’s schedule of fees for business licenses still lists those and other outdated entries. Changes could be in store for that fee schedule, based on discussion at a budget workshop of the Mount Airy Board of Commissioners Wednesday. Not only are some of the regulated business listings themselves reminiscent of earlier times, so are the charges for licenses required for their operation — which have been unchanged for years. For example, retail and other stores have paid an annu- al license fee of $25 for about a century. In fact, Commis- sioner Dean Brown said during Wednesday’s meeting that a framed copy of one of the first licenses issued to Leonard’s Jewelers — Mount Airy’s oldest business — re- flects the $25 price. The updating of license fees, which usually occurs at the start of a budget year, will not be done before the next fiscal year begins on July 1, but officials said Wednesday it should happen soon.

  • Stewart-Haas Racing: NASCAR Timeline
    Stewart-Haas Racing: NASCAR Timeline During a media session at Talladega (Ala.) Superspeedway, Tony Stewart acknowledges that he has April 25, 2008 offers from other teams to drive that include acquiring an equity stake in the organization when his contract with Joe Gibbs Racing comes to an end. Stewart and Joe Gibbs Racing officials announce that they will part ways at the end of the 2008 July 9, 2008 NASCAR Cup Series season. In a press conference at Chicagoland Speedway in Joliet, Illinois, Stewart announces that in 2009 he will serve as driver/owner of Stewart-Haas Racing (SHR). The team will be co-owned by Stewart July 10, 2008 and Gene Haas, founder of Oxnard, California-based Haas Automation, which owned Haas CNC Racing. The team will receive chassis, engines and technical support from Hendrick Motorsports. Stewart announces he will drive the No. 14 Chevrolet in 2009 with sponsorship from Office Depot July 25, 2008 and Old Spice. The press conference takes place at the IMS Productions studios across from Indianapolis Motor Speedway. In a press conference at Michigan International Speedway in Brooklyn, Stewart announces that Aug. 15, 2008 Ryan Newman will be his teammate at SHR and drive the No. 4 Chevrolet beginning in 2009. Stewart announces on SIRIUS’ “Tony Stewart Live” that Newman will drive the No. 39 Chevrolet instead of the No. 4. Aug. 19, 2008 Morgan-McClure Motorsports, which had used the No. 4 for several years in NASCAR competition, asked to keep the number for future use. Stewart and Newman opted for No. 39, the number Newman used to score his first United State Auto Club (USAC) victory.

  • KEVIN HARVICK Rick Mears
    KEVIN HARVICK Rick Mears KANNAPOLIS, North Carolina (March 12, 2019) – Kevin Harvick grew up a big fan of four-time Indianapolis 500-Mile Race winner Rick Mears. They are both from Bakersfield, California and found massive success in their racing careers. But they both started out racing as unknowns on now-closed racetracks. Mears got his start in 1976 in the United States Auto Club IndyCar series driving for Bill Simpson in the No. 38 Do-It Wax System Eagle Offenhauser at Ontario Motor Speedway just outside of Los Angeles. He started 20th and finished eighth, completing 192 of 200 laps. He earned $6,886 that day, and who would have known that just three years later he would score his first of four Indianapolis 500 wins driving for Roger Penske. Harvick got his NASCAR start in October 1995 at Mesa Marin Speedway in Bakersfield in the NASCAR Gander Outdoors Truck Series. He drove the No. 72 Hall Ambulance Chevrolet and started and finished 27th, completing 176 of 200 laps. Who would have known that in just six years he would take over for the late Dale Earnhardt at Richard Childress Racing and win in just his third Monster Energy NASCAR Cup Series start at Atlanta Motor Speedway. Mears earned three Championship Auto Racing Teams titles, four Indy 500 wins and 29 total Indy car victories. Harvick has one NASCAR Cup Series title, two NASCAR Xfinity Series titles and is one of just four drivers to win the Daytona 500 at Daytona International Speedway, the Brickyard 400 at the Indianapolis Motor Speedway, the Southern 500 at Darlington (S.C.) Raceway and the Coca-Cola 600 at Charlotte (N.C.) Motor Speedway.
