  • 30 YEARS of NASCAR at EVERGREEN, and the FRED BUTLER - JOHN GAY “MEMORIAL” HALL of FAME by Program Co-Editor Benson Chandler
    30 YEARS OF NASCAR AT EVERGREEN, AND THE FRED BUTLER - JOHN GAY “MEMORIAL” HALL OF FAME By Program Co-Editor Benson Chandler Evergreen Speedway celebrates 50 years of (what I like to call) “the modern era” of Saturday night racing, in 2015. It was 1965 when Figure-8 and Mini-stock racers were officially organized, and the two racing “clubs”, F.E.A.R. and F.S.C.R.A., were formed. It was 30 years ago that NASCAR came aboard, and this Evergreen Speedway “Hall of Fame” finally created! “For outstanding dedication and contributions to auto racing” …was sometimes printed on the annual award, and always on the header in the program each season. The Hall of Fame was created by (then) Promoter Mickey Beadle in 1985, and with that goal in mind, the “Hall” has consistently inducted special people, most of them exceptional racers, or long time employees. Several exceptional supporters of our track have also been inducted over the years. In fact, the Hall of Fame was re-dedicated in 1988, after the tragic double loss of super supporter Fred Butler, and Super-stock racer, John Gay. Both were inducted into the Hall that year posthumously, and their names added to the top of the Hall of Fame “Memorial” header here and in the Program, so both might remain in our hearts, forever. The latest Hall of Fame inductees were Ron Daggett and Don Scriver. Learn about them both under the year 2014, the same year we lost 3 other Hall of Fame members, Mick Tomlin, Gordy Stewart and Don Perry, as we continue through our second quarter-century of NASCAR at Evergreen Speedway, guided now by Doug and Traci Hobbs, and Highroad Promotions Co.

    Happy Birthday 2nd MAW Celebrating 100 Years of Marine Aviation Vol. 69, No. 27 www.cherrypoint.marines.mil July 7, 2011 Wing Operations Center offers Force in readiness critical training opportunities CPL. BRIAN ADAM JONES MCAS CHERRY POINT The 2nd Marine Aircraft Wing’s recent large force exercise, Exercise MAILED FIST 1-11, breathed life into a brand new tool that leaders say will redefi ne the way 2nd MAW conducts training and local operations. The Wing Operations Center, a windowless room with rows of work stations, a panel of large, wall-mounted monitors and, sometimes, an air of excited anticipation, offers a command and control nucleus for wing activity during major operational events. From the WOC, dozens of attentive Marines monitor occasionally hec- tic and elaborate missions and training events, keeping a close eye on everything from radar and weather patterns to video feeds and maps. “It’s a place where we can move the chess pieces across the operational spectrum,” said Lt. Col. Martin J. Forrest IV, the current operations offi cer for 2nd MAW. Forrest clearly sees the opportunities provided by the WOC. “It will allow us to train and execute large-force exercises much more realistically,” he said. Lt. Col. Matthew R. McGath, who served as the senior watch offi cer for the WOC during MAILED FIST, said that several times during the exercise, the existence of the WOC offered unique perspective or training opportunities that otherwise would have been lost. “The WOC allows coordination. It’s a big situational awareness tool and the wing’s current operations will really use it more often,” McGath CPL.
