Parsons Motocross Compound at Odon will be closed for at least the next two weeks. That’s the notice on the compound’s Facebook Page.
The owner of the track, Lance Parsons, 58 of Odon, died in a head-on vehicle crash Monday morning.
According to Indiana State Police Parsons was driving a 2012 Chevy Spark south on County Road 1225-East and went left of center for an unknown reason at the hill crest just south of 1400-North. He collided head-on with an ’05 Pontiac Montana min-van driven by 48-year-old Julie Wintergerst of Odon. Wintergerst was taken to IU Health in Bloomington with non life-threatening injuries. Police say Parsons was not wearing a seat belt while Wintergerst was wearing her safety belt.
