Granum, Creekside Outdoor Living sponsor NASCAR driver at Chicagoland Speedway

Granum and Creekside Outdoor Living will serve as co-primary sponsors of NASCAR driver Josh Bilicki during the NASCAR O’Reilly Auto Parts Series race at Chicagoland Speedway on July 4.

Bilicki will drive the No. 07 SS Green Light Racing Chevrolet featuring branding from both companies during the race, which is scheduled to be broadcast live on The CW Network.

Granum provides software for landscaping and outdoor service businesses. Creekside Outdoor Living is a landscape design, construction and maintenance company serving Northwest Indiana and the Chicago area.

“The people in this industry don’t get enough credit,” said Mark Sedgley, CEO of Granum. “They’re out before sunrise, they’re running crews, managing customers, building businesses from the ground up — and they do it with a level of pride and craftsmanship that’s hard to match anywhere. Putting the Granum name on that car alongside Creekside is our way of saying: this industry deserves to be seen. We’re proud to show up for them in a big way on the Fourth of July.”

Creekside Outdoor Living founder Mike Arnold will attend the event at Chicagoland Speedway. Arnold is also a Granum brand ambassador.

“Racing and the green industry have more in common than people think,” said Arnold. “It’s early mornings, hard work, a team you trust, and a real commitment to showing up and performing when it counts. I’m incredibly proud to represent this industry on a national stage — and to do it alongside Granum, a company that genuinely believes in the people doing this work every day.”

Bilicki, who has competed in NASCAR’s top series, said the partnership reflects values shared by racing and the landscaping industry.

“The landscaping and outdoor living industry is built on hard work, craftsmanship, and helping people enjoy where they live,” said Bilicki. “Those values align perfectly with auto racing, and I’m proud to carry these brands at Chicagoland on one of the biggest weekends of the summer.”

The NASCAR O’Reilly Auto Parts Series race at Chicagoland Speedway is scheduled for Saturday, July 4.
