Hurricane Dorian now has maximum sustained winds of 110 mph, the National Hurricane Center says
Atlanta Motor Speedway is opening its camping facilities to evacuees seeking refuge from Hurricane Dorian.
The Speedway, which is equipped to handle thousands of campers during its annual NASCAR weekend, will provide camping space free of charge for RV and tent campers in its Legends Campground.Located next to the camp sites, AMS will also open the Rinnai Shower Station camper bath house, allowing evacuees free access to hot showers and restroom facilities during their stay.
Over the last few years, Atlanta Motor Speedway has opened its grounds to hundreds of people seeking refuge from powerful storms. During Hurricane Irma in 2017, the Speedway hosted more than 100 campers; in 2018 dozens more stayed in the Speedway's camping areas during Hurricanes Florence and Michael.
"Our facility is uniquely suited for just this type of situation and making space available for people seeking refuge from hurricanes and other natural disasters is simply the right thing to do," Executive Vice President and General Manager Brandon Hutchison said. A limited number of camping spaces with water, power and sewer are also available for a nominal fee of $20 per night in the Premier Campground.
