BugBand and its line of natural insect repellent products announced today that they have become the first Made In USA Brand Certified company to partner with NASCAR Camping World Truck Series driver Max Gresham. The BugBand association with Gresham will mark the first time any company has become a sponsorship partner with his Made In USA Brand on-track awareness program. BugBand, a Cartersville, Ga. company, features a full line of wristbands, pump spray's, towelette and diffuser products with the active ingredient Geraniol. Unlike products that use Deet -- a synthetic, manufactured chemical -- BugBand products are naturally derived, featuring Geraniol, concentrated oil that is extracted from geranium flowers. BugBand will make its NASCAR Camping World Truck Series track debut on Gresham's #24 Chevrolet on Friday, May 18 in the North Carolina Education Lottery 200 at Charlotte Motor Speedway.(Joe Denette Motorsports PR)(4-4-2012)

In addition to the Charlotte race association, BugBand will continue to appear as a partner on Gresham's Joe Denette Motorsports Chevrolet Silverado and other race vehicles at select events throughout the rest of the year. Gresham is also scheduled to participate in several BugBand marketing initiatives in 2012. (5-2-2012)
