Monster Energy AMA Supercross Welcomes Back United States Air Force for 2011 season




AURORA, Ill. (December 7, 2010) – Feld Motor Sports
announced today that the United States Air Force (USAF) will extend
their sponsorship as the Official Military Partner of Monster Energy
AMA Supercross, an FIM World Championship, for the fifth consecutive
year.


The
United States Air Force has a strong presence both on and off the track
at Monster Energy AMA Supercross races. USAF provides an Honor Guard to
present the American colors prior to the National Anthem at each race. 
As part of the opening ceremonies, USAF will also conduct a Delayed
Entrance Program (DEP) initiation for newly enlisted recruits. In 2010,
more than 280 DEP inductees were sworn into the USAF and more than 60
USAF Honor Guards participated in presenting the Nation’s colors during
opening ceremonies.


“The
United States Air Force has been a longtime partner of Monster Energy
AMA Supercross, and we are thrilled they will be back again in 2011,”
said
Charlie Mancuso, President of Feld Motor Sports. 
“At each race, our Monster Energy AMA Supercross fans interact with
local members of the Air Force based in their communities and can
explore the career opportunities the Air Force has to offer.  It is an
honor to watch young men and women take the Air Force oath during the
DEP ceremony prior to our races and is a very special and patriotic way
to start each event.”


Throughout
the Monster Energy AMA Supercross season, USAF will receive space on
the concourse and in the pits to interact with supercross fans.
Additionally, USAF will receive benefits such as Tuff Block and track
signage, JumboTron and PA advertisement spots, and allocated space in
the souvenir program.


Through
their sponsorship activation with Monster Energy AMA Supercross, the
USAF hopes to inspire race fans by showcasing the unparalleled
opportunities and intriguing positions available in the Air Force.
