Start Your Engines: Camden's Dream Wish at the Daytona 500

A NASCAR Dream Come True, A Family Bond Strengthened and Smiles All Around!

Meet Camden: The Ultimate NASCAR Fan

Camden, a vibrant and sports-loving kid, has always had one big dream — to experience the thrill of the Daytona 500 in person. A diehard NASCAR fan, Camden lives and breathes the sport. From recognizing car models like Fords, Toyotas, and Chevrolets to matching numbers with drivers, Camden and his younger brother are encyclopedias of racing knowledge.

“The boys know the Fords, the Toyotas, the Chevrolets. They’ve even corresponded the numbers to the drivers.”— Wish Dad Brent

This love for the sport became more than just a hobby — it became the foundation of a once-in-a-lifetime experience for Camden and his family.

A Wish Fulfilled: Daytona 500 with His Family

Thanks to supporters like you and the efforts of Make-A-Wish, Camden’s dream zoomed into reality as he headed to the Daytona 500, one of the most iconic races in the world.

The trip wasn’t just about the race — it was about memories. Camden’s parents, Brent and Meredith, watched their sons bond over their favorite sport, living out their dream together.

“Seeing their faces and their smiles… They really are having the time of their lives, and to see that means so much to both Brent and myself.”— Wish Mom Meredith

From the thunder of the engines to the roar of the crowd, every moment was unforgettable.

A Moment with a Hero: Meeting Kevin Harvick

One of the highlights? Camden met his favorite NASCAR driver, Kevin Harvick, before the big race. The interaction lit up Camden’s face and elevated the entire experience from memorable to magical. As the race began, Camden had one last surprise up his sleeve. With pure excitement, he grabbed the FOX8 microphone and shouted: “Start your engines!”

A wish fulfilled. A dream lived. A fan forever changed.
