Success! Are You Prepared...for winter driving?


Saturday morning marked our first official "Are You Prepared...?" program with a winter preparedness car check provided by Midwest Superstore's service department.  Special thanks go to Clint and his crew from Midwest's service department for providing a pleasant, friendly and FREE experience for the patrons who signed up for the program.

Here's what happened:  We registered participants ahead of time for 12 time slots.  Patrons arrived in our NW parking area and checked in inside our garage area.  The folks from Midwest pulled the cars in by turns and provided the owner with a free visual inspection of the vehicle that included airing up the tires, wiper fluid fill and a check of filters, tire tread, and battery voltage.  The Midwest staff then explained their findings to the vehicle owners with recommendations regarding any issues they might want to address before winter arrives full-force.

We will continue our series of "Are You Prepared...for the END?  programs after the Christmas/New Year's holidays.  The programs are intended to be practical and fun and making light-hearted use of the fact that 2012 marks the end of the Meso-american long count calendar.  Look for upcoming programs on winter safety and preparedness, travel, gardening, financial and legal preparedness and more throughout 2012!

Wow!  We have a lot of junk in our garage!

Both stalls filled!

Who is that balding guy on the right?
