Thank you all for making Saturday's Hog roast and Hotrods event a huge success! It was great seeing everyone come out and celebrate with us! This year we had sixty-nine cars register for the show and a handful of cars rolled in after registration was closed. Not too shabby!!! I heard that there may have been some other guys putting on a small show in Columbus at the Expo Center or something! Every year is a learning experience for us, and we work very hard to make the show bigger and better as it continues to grow. We can’t wait to do it again next year! We would like to thank our Technicians and all of our friends and family who volunteered their time and energy to make the event possible! They showed up early and stayed late working tirelessly in the heat to ensure that everything went off without a hitch! A huge shout out to all of our Vendors for the Awesome door prizes that they donate each year! AutoZone, Smyth Auto Parts, Oreilly Auto Parts, Advance Auto Parts, NAPA Auto Parts, and K&M Tire, our hats go off to you folks for always taking such good care of us! If you were at the show, I think you know who the biggest donor was Lol. This year’s event was bittersweet. Two days before the event, we lost our DJ, loyal customer, and great friend Eric "Big E" Fraizer due an unforeseen medical emergency. Through your generosity we were able to raise and donate $1000.00 to Eric's wife and six children to help them through this devastating time. To show testimony to how selfless and caring the Frazier family is, Eric’s wife, Annamarie, while going through the loss of her Husband and best friend, put us in contact with a friend of Eric’s, Nick Dillon who owns and operates DJ Zanril DJ services. Nick not only put his family vacation on hold, but agreed to take the show on short notice, and donated his pay for the show to help the Fraizer family! We would like to thank our AMAZING customers for voting us Licking Counties Community Choice award winner for best service center for the second year in a row! We had some great food catered by Smoke Seitz Wood fired BBQ. Wicked Sisters cakes killed it again this year with three beautiful and delicious cakes. We raffled off well over one hundred door prizes and gave away some cool swag provided by our vendors. Congratulations to Danny Dalton and Scott Smith on winning the two flat screen TVS! Congratulations to Jay and Rhonda Stapleton on winning the 50/50 raffle and a heartfelt thank you for donating a portion of the winnings back for the Fraizer family! Congratulations to John B. for driving all the way up from Logan and winning the $50.00 Speedway fuel card for the farthest drive in. We would like to say Congratulations to this year’s winners.
