Luke and Caroline Bryan, along with Darrell Waltrip and Vicki McNamara, recently helped Williamson Health celebrate the completion of the first phase of its flagship facility Williamson Medical Center’s Emergency Room expansion and renovation with a “Race to the Ribbon” ribbon-cutting event.

Local dignitaries including Williamson County Mayor Rogers Anderson; Bo Butler, chair of the Williamson Health Board of Trustees; project capital campaign co-chair McNamara and supporter Waltrip joined Williamson Health CEO Phil Mazzuca in cutting the ribbon at the celebration. The “Race to the Ribbon” theme was a nod to the multi-million-dollar project’s first corporate partner, Darrell Waltrip Automotive Group. Named one of NASCAR’s “50 Greatest Drivers,” Waltrip drove Luke Bryan in a custom-wrapped sports car to the new ER portico, where they kicked off the festivities.
