Business Editors

PHILADELPHIA--(BUSINESS WIRE)--July 21, 2000

Auto-racing legends Mario Andretti, Derek Bell, and Emerson Fittapaldi have all raced against Davina Galica, one of the world's leading female racecar drivers.

Now, ARAMARK Uniform Services is racing with her.

ARAMARK Uniform Services, a leading supplier of uniforms and career apparel, will sponsor Galica in the Women's Global GT Series (WGGTS) at the July 23rd race in Sonoma, Calif. The WGGTS Series, a companion to the American Le Mans Series, takes its third race of the second season to the Sears Point Raceway.

In support of ARAMARK's sponsorship of Galica, the ARAMARK's Star Person logo will be featured on the driver's uniform and Panoz Esperante sedan racecar in the Sonoma race.

The 55-year old Galica, the only driver to win two WGGTS races last year, holds an excellent position in this year's series as the leader in points going into Sunday's race. She placed second in last year's inaugural series.

For more than 20 years, Galica has competed in auto racing. Numerous top-ten wins in the U.S., Europe and Asia have earned her the respect of fellow drivers and race-related industries.

Galica's competitive nature flourishes off the racetrack as well. As a member of the British Women's Ski Team, she competed in four Olympics. Galica continues to serve as a member of the British Speed Skiing Team.

In addition to her participation in auto racing and Olympic skiing, Galica teaches at the Skip Barber Racing School in Lakeville, Conn. as a professional racing instructor.

The talent, endurance, and spirit of Galica make for an ideal partnership with ARAMARK. By sponsoring a winning racecar driver, ARAMARK reaffirms its commitment to developing unique and innovative partnerships with its customers.
