Refer the most people to sign up for membership and you'll get a chance to enter the money booth.
On Wednesday, January 25th, the MCAA will be hosting a "Money Grab Booth" (sponsored by Spec Mix) out in the Gold lot during the Bricklayer 500.

New members who join the MCAA during the show will have an opportunity to enter the booth one time to grab as much cash as they can! In addition, the MCAA member that refers the most people to sign up for membership in the association during the show will also get a chance to enter the money booth.

So bring that competitive spirit as you head out to Las Vegas and maybe we'll see you in "The Booth"!
