Shannon has been involved in quarter midget racing and THQMA for nearly 50 years as a driver, handler and most recently as a chassis builder.  Shannon seldom misses an event at THQMA and is a mainstay in the hot chute; helping out anyone that needs it regardless of what type of chassis.  He willingly shares with drivers and handlers his vast wealth of knowledge, experience and expertise.  Shannon can be counted on as a “voice of reason” for many heated trackside situations.  His wisdom extends beyond simply how to set up and drive a quarter midget.  The life lessons and spiritual guidance that Shannon provides will be with the children and adults that he has touched at THQMA, long after their racing careers have ended. 
His passion for the sport is only exceeded by his passion for the kids.  The look on Shannon’s face, when one of the kids that he has worked with “gets it”, clearly illustrates this passion.  Anyone who knows Shannon, knows that the above, only scratches the surface of describing his generosity, wisdom, dedication and impact on the people of THQMA.

The Morgans are still involved as the premier Deco engine builder in not only THQMA, but all of Region 5. Mary can still be seen every Saturday night at the track, scoring the tower harassing the race director, and making new friends in the hot chute.  They seldom miss a race at THQMA or a Region 5 or Grands event.  The Morgan Family's commitment to the kids of  THQMA in unprecedented.

James "Grampa" Meyers

Grandpa Myers was a part of the THQMA family spanning 3 generations. He was a veteran who was awarded a purple heart, and survived the sinking of the U.S.S Rohna. He was married to Geraldine Myers, with whom they had seven children. Grandpa became a member of THQMA in the 1970’s, initially with son Jim and later two of his daughters, Dori and Jodi began racing. Through the years, several of his grandkids and later, great-grandkids became drivers.
Grandpa just enjoyed the atmosphere at the track, and loved each child as if they were his own. Nothing made him smile more than seeing the kids do well in their race car. He always thought you did amazing, whether you finished first or last, as long as you were having fun.

Andy Camp

Andy Camp was involved in every aspect of the QMA during his family’s 11 year tenure in the sport. He not only helped work the track every Thursday night, but he also held many different positions locally, regionally and nationally, including THQMA Novice Direc­tor, THQMA Club President, Region 5 Director, THQMA Club Vice President, QMA National Vice President, and QMA National Head Judge; some of these held concurrently.  Andy was only able to do so only through the help and support of his wife, Peggy, and children, Katie and Kyle.
As National Head Judge, he used three of his four vacation weeks to travel all over the United States and Canada to the Grand National events and the fourth to attend the National QMA meeting. In all, he attended 15 Grand National Events as National Head Judge. At the Dirt Grand Nationals every year, he would not only be National Head Judge, but would handle Katie in three classes and starting in 1998, also raced Kyle.  Andy and his family have moved to drag racing with Kyle. The Camp family still holds QMA close to their hearts and hopes to be back racing at THQMA again one day.
