Lt. Robert Cooney Memorial Benefit Auction!

Tri-City Speedway is joining with the St. Louis racing community to benefit a worthy cause with a silent auction for Lt. Robert Cooney who died due to an off duty accident at his home. He was the Commander of the St. Louis Metropolitan Police Dept. SWAT, Canine and Hostage Response Team. He was the ACE trainer for SWAT and Hostage Response Team for our country. He was also Tri-City track officials Carolyn and Gordon May’s nephew. He would have retired in one year. Since he died at home there are no organizations to provide for his family's future. Tri-City Speedway is holding a silent auction for his children Sarah age 13 and Sean age 10. To learn more about Lt. Cooney visit the robertjcooneymemorial.org website.
