Worker's Guide to Heartland Park
Access to the track from the major highways is good.
The entrance to the track is through a tunnel under the track, so it is
possible to enter and leave while races are in progress.
There is ample paved paddock space for RV and camper
parking, and some electrical hookups are available (contact the track
for cost and availability). Camping and pets are permitted (pets must be
kept on a leash at all times). There is no designated Worker Camping area for normal Club Race weekends (but there will be for the Runoffs and Pro weekends). There is plenty of grass to pitch a
tent, but beware of the sudden storms that may roll through, so make
sure your tent is well tied down. Modern permanent restrooms and shower
facilities are available. The concession stand and a souvenir shop are
open on most race weekends, for limited hours.
Street
gas is available from service stations on S. Topeka Blvd within a
couple of miles of the track. There are also some convenience stores in the same area.

Assembly Points
The F&C Corner Meeting is held in the pavilion on the north-west
corner of the paddock, about 45 minutes before the first session of the
day. Other specialties may assemble elsewhere, but, if you don't know
where to go, this would be a good place to come for guidance.
