American Team Cycling League Championships at the Lehigh Valley Velodrome in Trexlertown. PHILADELPHIA Milk was part of the winner’s circle at the Got Milk? American Team Cy cling League (ATC) champion ship held recently at the Lehigh Valley Velodrome in Trexlertown. A field of 50 cyclists from across the country competed in the championship, which was sponsored by “got milk?” and the American Dairy Association/ Dairy Council Middle Atlantic (ADA/DC). “We are pleased to be the first national sponsor of the ATC championship,” said Patricia Pur cell, director of advertising and retail for ADA/DC Middle Atlan tic. “Cycling is a popular sport here in the Lehigh Valley region and across the country. It’s a per fect venue for spotlighting the role milk plays as part of an athlete’s training program.” That message was emphasized in the Velodrome’s August 2000 souvenir program, which included a page dedicated to the ATC championship. Cycling enthusi read or print this and hundreds asts were reminded that “a bal anced diet, including at least three glasses of nutrient-dense milk, provides the fuel necessary for ac tive bodies.” “Milk is a natural power drink,” Purcell said. “It provides calcium and eight essential nutri ents that can help put muscle into your workouts.” During the cycling champion ship, more than 2,800 fans cheered on their favorite team while participating in a number of “got milk?” events. All young fans received a “got milk?” book cover and had a chance to com pete in a “milk and cookie toss” in the infield. The two winners, who pitched the most cookies into their bucket, were awarded a “Chocolate Milk” mountain bike. In addition, 1,700 single-serve containers of chocolate milk from Wawa Dairies were served to fans before, during and after the races. “Go Go Go got milk?” banners were prominently displayed around the track, and numerous public address an nouncements high lighted milk’s sponsor ship of the race. Representatives of the dairy industry including dairy prin cesses and ADA/DC Middle Atlantic staff participated in the awards ceremony at the end of the race. The big winner in the men’s division was the home team, the Trex lertown Express, earn ing its second win in the ATC’s three-year history.
