(MAY 29,
2007, PERRIS, CA) Perris Auto Speedway will begin its
Annual Kid's month this Saturday night, June 2nd. All kids
12 and under will be admitted free when they are accompanied

the younger set this Saturday will be the popular Art's
Concrete Pumping Extreme Late Models, PASSCAR Modfieds,
Street Stocks and the California Lightning Sprint Cars.

June has been
deemed "Kid's Month" at The PAS since 2001.
"We started Kid's Month as a reward to our fans,"
stated promoter Don Kazarian. "It saves them some money
and it is a way of saying thanks to them for supporting our
shows. It also exposes younger fans to our sport."
As has been
the case in the past, this year's "Kid's Month" is
not just a family thing. "As long as the kids are
accompanied by an adult, they all get in free. Fans can load
up the car, van or rent a bus and bring the entire
neighborhood and they will get in free," Kazarian said.
"The kids love the shows and we enjoy hosting the kids.
The more the merrier."
