The South Haven Area Chamber of Commerce Celebrates

GingerMan Raceway’s 30^th Season

South Haven, MI – April 23, 2026- The South Haven Area Chamber of Commerce was proud to celebrate a major milestone in the community, GingerMan Raceway’s 30^th season.

What began in 1995 as a bold and unconventional vision when Dan Schnitta transformed an apple orchard into a racetrack, has now grown into a destination that has welcomed generations of drivers, spectators, and families. Over the years, GingerMan has become a place defined by millions of miles of tradition, memories made at every speed, and a shared appreciation for motorsports in all its forms.

More than just a place to race, GingerMan Raceway has built a reputation for offering an experience that blends energy and atmosphere. It’s a place where the excitement of the track meets the ease of a Southwest Michigan evening, where visitors can spend the day immersed in the action and wind down as the sun sets, surrounded by a strong sense of community.

As the Raceway enters its 30th season, that spirit continues with a dynamic mix of programming that reflects both its deep-rooted traditions and its continued growth. Longstanding partnerships, returning favorites, and new additions all contribute to a season that welcomes participants of all ages and experience levels. From first-time drivers getting their start to seasoned racers returning year after year, GingerMan remains an important entry point and gathering place within the motorsports world.

This anniversary season also brings thoughtful improvements to the facility. Recent renovations include upgrades to the Tire Rack Tower with new siding and added lighting, enhancements to La Dolce Vita with a newly built deck, and continued updates to amenities and track features. These investments reflect an ongoing commitment to creating a welcoming and enjoyable experience for everyone who visits.

As GingerMan Raceway celebrates three decades, it stands as a testament to vision, perseverance, and the community that has supported it along the way. The South Haven Area Chamber of Commerce is honored to recognize this milestone and looks forward to seeing GingerMan continue to thrive for years to come.
