Teenager recognized for Tunes 4 Troops campaign

MOORESVILLE, N.C. -- While most people would say that kids these days are lazy or have no goals, "Incredible Hero" Kaylee Marie Radzyminski is proof that this stereotype is just not true. Kaylee Marie, 18, understands the importance of supporting our U.S. troops and created the Tunes 4 Troops campaign as a way of saying thanks to the men and women serving our country.

America's Incredible Pizza Co. and CJM Racing are honoring Incredible Heroes throughout the 2009 Nationwide Series season. If you know of an Incredible Hero, let us know.

The campaign sends donated CD's, DVD's and books on CD to the troops serving in combat zones. Since 2005, Kaylee Marie and her volunteers have sent 600,000 donated discs abroad.

"I wanted to show that kids are ambitious, and have a strong sense of pride," remarked Kaylee Marie. "I started Tunes 4 Troops to let the brave soldiers serving around the world know who they are serving and fighting for. It is the future of America, me, and all the youth like me. I have a future to look forward to because of sacrifices made for me and all other Americans."

"I know I am just one girl. But I have a voice and I will use it to say thank you to all that are serving in the Armed Forces of the United States of America!"

For Kaylee Marie's initiative, she and a guest will attend the upcoming race at Atlanta Motor Speedway as a guest of CJM Racing and America's Incredible Pizza Company. She will experience a VIP evening at the Nationwide Series race which will include a behind the scenes look in the garage and pit area. Each hero meets the driver of the No. 11 CJM Racing entry, sits atop the pit box during the race and receives a plaque in recognition of their heroism.
