The Knoxville Chamber of Commerce held a Lunch and Learn event yesterday, discussing their plan for the 2018 Knoxville Nationals.

The guest speaker was Knoxville Raceway Marketing Director Kendra Jacobs, and she told KNIA/KRLS News the best advice she can give to local businesses is to embrace the event through getting the word out about the patronage you will show race fans, and showing them a good time once they are here so they will want to come back year after year. The next Knoxville Chamber of Commerce Lunch and Learn event will take place on July 24th.
