A season of giving

As December started it was the beginning of the holiday season.  At Lafferty we have been celebrating not only this Holiday season but celebrating our fifty anniversary as a dealership.  Fifty years ago on December 1st Lafferty opened it's door to the public.  Happy Birthday Lafferty Chevrolet!!!!

So how have we been celebrating...
In just the past 10 days at Lafferty Chevrolet we have:
  • Welcomed our new car owners at our new car clinic
  • Welcomed Willow Dale Elementary for a drive for education 
  • CBS 3 stoped in for visit
  • Handed out free  admission to the Franklin Institute and it special exhibit Cleopatra
  • Been filling the Stocking for Kids box for the Salvation Army
  • Welcomed 85 ladies to Ladies Night Out 
  • Handed out 40$ gift certificates to all the women who test drove the Traverse
  • Handed out 5- $100 check during out ladies night out
  • We introduced you to the New Chevy Cruze
I would like to thank everyone for being part of the past fifty years at Lafferty.  I am sure we all have many stories we can tell.  I remember car shows and helping Dad sell hot dogs and pretzels.  I remember my first job cleaning the lots of cigarette butts, Welcoming Dale Earnhardt to the dealership to sign auto graphs...people were lined up all the way around the building, Earnhardt's #3 was on view in the showroom for a few days and I got to watch them bring in the car. I learned to drive stick shift out on Street Road.  I use to sell Girl Scout cookies to everyone, I had the oppurtunity to test drive many differt Chevy models.   I have been able to meet a lot of people; those who have been employed by Lafferty and those who have been customers.   

So here is to another Fifty Years for Lafferty.  I wonder if in the next  fifty years we will have cars that fly...and I also wonder who is readying this, are you?
