❤️🏁 AN OFFICIAL STATEMENT FROM SASQUATCH OF SHARON, PENNSYLVANIA, I wanted to take some time to think about what I truly wanted to say.🏁❤️
Sharon Speedway — MORE THAN JUST DIRT TRACK RACING. IT'S FAMILY.
There are moments in life when words simply cannot express what something means to you. Being named the Official Mascot of Sharon Speedway for the 2027 racing season is one of those moments.
To some people, Sharon Speedway is just a dirt track. It's a place where engines roar, dirt flies, cars race in circles, and drivers chase checkered flags.
But to me, Sharon Speedway is something so much bigger.
It's a place where strangers become friends, friends become family, and memories are made that last a lifetime.
It's the little kid standing along the fence with excitement in their eyes, waiting to see their favorite driver.
It's the parents and grandparents passing down their love of racing to the next generation.
It's the families sitting together in the grandstands, sharing laughter, cheering for their favorite cars, and forgetting about the worries of everyday life for just a few hours.
It's the hugs, the handshakes, the high-fives, and the smiles.
But it's also the tears.
It's the emotional victories, the heartbreaking losses, the empty seats where loved ones once sat, and the memories of those who helped make this racing community what it is today.
Because dirt track racing isn't just about winning or losing.
It's about belonging to something bigger than yourself.
As Sasquatch of Sharon, my mission has always been simple: make people smile, bring people together, and remind the world that kindness and connection don't always require words.
Being Deaf, I experience the world a little differently. But one thing I've learned is that you don't have to hear the roar of an engine to feel the excitement of racing. You don't have to hear someone cheering to understand their happiness. And you certainly don't need words to understand a hug, a smile, or the feeling of being welcomed.
Love, friendship, kindness, and family are languages everyone can understand. ❤️
And that's exactly what Sharon Speedway has given me.
A place where I can be myself.
A place where I'm not defined by what I cannot hear but can feel in my chest, and be embraced for the happiness I can bring.
A place where I can walk through the pits, visit the grandstands, meet families, make children laugh, share moments with drivers and crews, and hopefully make someone's difficult day just a little brighter.
Sometimes, the smallest moments make the biggest difference.
A child running up for a hug.
A fan wanting one more picture.
A driver smiling after a long, difficult night.
A family coming together after experiencing something heartbreaking.
Those are the moments that stay with me.
Those are the moments that make everything worth it.
When Sharon Speedway welcomed me into their family as their Official Mascot, they gave me so much more than a title.
They gave me an opportunity.
An opportunity to represent a place filled with history, passion, determination, and heart.
An opportunity to show people that racing is more than what happens on the track.
An opportunity to bring the Deaf community and the racing community closer together.
And, most importantly, an opportunity to continue doing what I love — MAKING PEOPLE SMILE.
To the owners, management, employees, volunteers, drivers, race teams, sponsors, and every single fan who makes Sharon Speedway special:
THANK YOU.
Thank you for welcoming me with open arms.
Thank you for believing in me.
Thank you for looking beyond the costume and seeing the heart inside it.
Thank you for giving someone like me a place to belong and a purpose that means more than I could ever explain.
And to my incredible Squatch Family, especially those who have supported me from Sharon, Pennsylvania, and all our surrounding communities — none of this would be possible without you.
You have shown me that something as simple as making someone smile can grow into something truly extraordinary.
I know there will be nights filled with laughter and excitement. There will be emotional moments, difficult nights, celebrations, and maybe even a few tears.
And through all of it, I want to be there.
Not just as a mascot.
Not just as a character walking around a racetrack.
But as a friend. As part of a family. As someone who genuinely cares.
Because long after the engines go quiet, the grandstands empty, and the lights go out, the memories and the people are what remain.
One day, the trophies will collect dust. The race results will become history. But the friendships, the hugs, the laughter, and the people who made us feel loved will never be forgotten.
THAT is what Sharon Speedway means to me.
And when I walk through those gates in 2027 wearing the title of Official Mascot, I won't just be representing a racetrack.
I'll be representing a family, a community, a tradition, and a place that has given me a sense of belonging I will forever cherish.
From the bottom of my big, furry Sasquatch heart, thank you for allowing me to be part of something so special.
Sharon Speedway isn't just where we race. It's where we belong. ❤️🏁
With endless love, gratitude, and the biggest Sasquatch hugs imaginable,
Sasquatch of Sharon, Pennsylvania ❤️
Proud Official Mascot of Sharon Speedway — 2027
